Day Three: Adventurous.
My word for the year is explore. I chose it because I’ve tipped into the second half of life. And, what’s being asked of me now feels different.
Less about building, more about becoming. Less about proving, more about presence.
I believe the desire to explore is something we all crave. It’s universal. We’re wired to wonder, to seek, to stretch beyond the familiar. But exploring requires something hard: a willingness to leave the known behind. To let go of certainty. To move toward something without guarantees.
This year, I want to explore new places, for sure, but also new questions. New ways of loving, leading, and living.
I want to follow curiosity instead of control. Trust instead of strategy. Let things unfold without needing to grip so tight. Because in the second half, life doesn’t speed up, it deepens.
And I want to be awake for every bit of it.
Don’t you?
Mantra \ Prayer:
Hold life with an open hand. Good is here.
