Do you choose a word to empower you or guide you through the year?
Being creative, either on a subconscious if it isn't a conscious level we are often in touch with our spiritual self or inner-self and what I find is a lot of us tend to select a word or mantra to live by for the coming year. If you do this I'd love to hear what word/phrase you have chosen for yourself..........mine is TRUST.
The word Trust came to me about the same time I felt a positive change within myself a few weeks back and since then there has been so many signs that I am on the right path in life and closer to achieving my dreams then I truly had known, yes there are still some difficulties I am dealing with but in other aspects I am feeling the best about my life than I have in ages. It feels like I am being guided and protected and that the universe is aligning everything perfectly. I have to Trust that everything will fall into place. I have always been a believer everything happens for a reason.
So anyhow when I saw the first prompt of the year for Journal 52 - Pathways, all these things were going through my head. I had been sent some new stamps from Rubber Dance Stamp Co.....two I felt were perfect for what I was visualizing and I had three colors of Pan Pastels sitting together that were speaking to me. The color of the Heart Chakra is Green and Gold is the color of my Aura or so I was recently told.
So that's what I am hoping to do coming into 2015 - Follow my Heart! Will you be following yours?

I love your journal page - the colours and quote are wonderful!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Happy New Year!
Love it, Danie! Thank you for choosing to use some of my stamps for this one - they sure fit the theme and your word for 2015 really well! I'm getting better at following my heart and it is a matter of trust, isn't it? Trusting that we always know, somewhere deep within, what's right for us.
I had picked "Focus" for my 2015 word, but it didn't give me that good gut feeling nor inspiration I want my word to give me. I do need to focus more, but I think my word should give me a boost, and focus simply does not. So ... I'll try to be quiet and listen to what my inner voice says. She's much smarter than me! ;-)
I wish you a very Happy New Year. May everything keep falling into place for you and all your dreams come true! xox
This is stunning and your creative explanation enlightening. I'm not sure if I could choose just one word to catalogue my year but after reading your post, think I need to. Thank you for sharing, Lou x
So much depth of meaning in this beautiful piece, Danie! I know your trust will lead you boldly forward on your life journey.
Good luck with the project this year. Thanks for smiling along with me.
Beautiful Journal, Danie! And I hope your holidays were wonderful and the new year is off to a good start for you :) Happy year ahead!
