I got this idea from a wonderful Pennsylvania blogger named Linda Stager, who inspired today's blog post.
She also ia a fabulous photographer.
My word of the year is patience. Patience, or lack of patience, is something I have always struggled with. I really need to work on having more patience ... with myself, with my dogs, with others, and with other drivers.
I found a definition of patience online: Patience is the capacity to endure delay, hardship or suffering without getting angry or upset. I would add "or frustration" to that definiation of patience.
I won't go into the details, but recemtly my lack of patience definitely showed itself. So yesterday, I vowed to do better. And I hope to continue to do better throughout this year. So far, after two days of trying to be more patient, I am i mproving. Let's hope this trend continues.
People tend to see me as a laid-back, unassuming, quiet person. And for the most part, that is true. I value my privacy. I love to read and to take photographs. I love to travel. But beneath my calm demeanor lurks a bubbling caldron.
So in 2026 I vow to turn down the temperature significantly.
What is your word of the year?
