My WORD for 2020 is Embrace! What is YOUR word? |
What word is going to help bring 2020 into focus for you? To give you a new way of looking at your life and adventures?
For me, it was an easy choice! I have been trying to enjoy life a little more. And, recently, I came across the word ~ EMBRACE ~ and it just captured my outlook on life so well!
So, my WORD for 2020 is going to be ♡~ EMBRACE ~♡!!!! In 2020, my goal is EMBRACE LIFE ~ LEARNING ~ EACH MOMENT!!!
How Can You Embrace Life More!
One of the best ways to start incorporating this into your life, is by surrounding yourself with what makes you happy as much as possible. Not necessarily the "I can't stop smiling" happy, as much as the "just feeling content deep in your soul" happy.
Myquillyn Smith, blogger (https://thenester.com/) and author of Cozy Minimalist Home: More Style, Less Stuff discovered this as she was trying to find the right style for her small house.

And that is when she learned all about...Hygge!
What in the World is Hygge?
According to the Danish website (visitdenmark.com), Hygge (pronounced "hoo-gah") is a Danish word. "In essence, hygge means creating a warm atmosphere and enjoying the good things in life with good people.
How Does this Fit in With Embracing Life?
According to Smith in her book, "Hygge is all about creating a cozy, safe, warm and inviting atmosphere. It's about finding contentment and joy in the simple things like sitting by a fire playing a board game."
"Hygge is not a look or a style; it's an intention. The goal of hygge is cozy togetherness, get-through-it-ness, comfort, and knowing you are not alone."
And she is absolutely correct! If you have created a home where you feel ~ 'just feeling content deep in your soul' happy ~ THEN, you are already:
- Embracing Life
- Embracing Each Moment
What Are You Waiting For?
Get a fresh start in 2020! No resolutions to worry about. Only one word...YOUR word! What will be YOUR word that brings 2020 in focus for your moments, your dreams, your life?
Now, as for me, I will stop writing, and go create a feeling of "Hygge" in my front room!
♡ Embrace Life!
♡ Embrace Learning!
♡ Embrace Each Moment!
