\"\"This morning, while sitting and staring out the window, sipping that magical first cup of coffee, I witnessed a miracle.\u00a0 The Sunrise.<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0 The grey clouds cleared, the sun peeked out and the sky a magnificent shade of blue.\u00a0 Another day, a new dawn.\u00a0 Wow!\u00a0 Thank you!<\/p>\n

And I wondered, “In what manner or miracle will this day unveil itself to me?\u00a0\u00a0 How might I see the day in its best light?\u00a0 How might I influence my day?”<\/p>\n

It was then that the metaphorical light bulb went off.\u00a0 Why not designate Thursday’s as “One Word to Live By Day.”\u00a0<\/strong><\/em> Choose one word that helps to create a vision for your day.<\/p>\n

We could easily write words on cards, words to live by, words that capture our imagination, and every Thursday morning, bright n’ early, I could pull a card out of the word hat.\u00a0 Together, we set our intention to live by that word on that day.<\/p>\n

I say, let’s try it!\u00a0 I am happy to compile our “best words to live by.”\u00a0 Make cards, pull a card out of the proverbial “word hat” on Thursday morning, and post it here.\u00a0 I will accompany the word with quotes that reflect the one word; that will help to get our one word in motion.<\/p>\n

Under the seal of Our Lady of Weight Loss, home of the Kick in the Tush Club, I hereby designated Thursday’s as “One Word to Live By Day.”\u00a0 #OneWord<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0 Send your ONE WORD to Live By to me. (post below, or post on KITT Club\/FB page)
\n2.\u00a0 Word Cards will be created and tossed into the “hat.”
\n3.\u00a0 Thursday’s will be the day that the word is revealed.<\/p>\n

Today, let’s start our new venture with ADVENTURE<\/strong>.\u00a0\u00a0 What does your today’s adventure look like?<\/p>\n

\u201dThe big question is whether you are going to be able to say a hearty yes to your adventure.\u201d ~ Joseph Campbell<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cLets keep the car in drive and leave it all behind.\u201d ~ John Mayer<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.\u201d ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cAnd the day came when the wish to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.\u201d ~ Anais Nin<\/p>\n

\u201cLife is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming \u2013 \u201cWOW \u2013 What a Ride!\u201d ~ Anonymous<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201dSecurity is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.\u201d ~ Helen Keller<\/p>\n

\u201dTwenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn\u2019t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.\u201d\u00a0 ~ Mark Twain<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.\u201d ~ W.M. Lewis<\/p>\n

Hungry for more adventure?\u00a0 More words to fuel your day?\u00a0 More fun? Then join Kick in the Tush Club\/Facebook!<\/a><\/p>\n

Spread the word\u2013NOT the icing!<\/p>\n
