2010 Word of the Year – Release
I’ve been choosing a yearly word since 2008. Every year it’s surprised me with how it manifested in my life. This year was no exception.
I was carrying a lot of anxiety last fall. I had applied for graduate school and was desperate to get out of a job that seemed to be going nowhere, but I wasn’t sure what path to take.

Though I considered “forgive” for a while–feeling I needed to do some work on that when old anger arose after learning my ex-husband had remarried–in the end, release just kept drawing me back. Somehow, some way, I needed to release everything that was miring me in that pit of anxiety and fear. I had certain expectations of how that would happen, of course.
