I stopped making resolutions years ago - something about never keeping them started to feel like a real downer. So instead I use the time to reflect on the past year and renew my intentions in a more general way for how I hope to evolve next. So aside from our upcoming baby shower I've decided 2008 is the year of fearlessness. To say yes more often, with more courage, standing up and embracing the unknown and the known and the next right thing. Falling down will be okay too.
And I can't wait. Happy New Year, village. I can't wait to see what mountains we move next.

Happy New Year! I started reading your blog a couple of months ago, and I love it. You've changed some of my attitudes and perceptions, and for that I thank you.
yes!
(have you read Chani's new years post yet?)
Happy New Year!
I'm all for it.
Happy New Year to you all! :)

In honor of you, I just have to tell you, I got my confirmation emails.
I am now a volunteer with Desert Hospice of Arizona and the Make a Wish foundation.
Happy New year :)
Bring it on!
i'm with you there gal. i plan to tell people i love that i love them, and i hope that will include myself, at least some days! thanks for all your inspiration this year.
Me too, Mama, me too!
Happy New Year!
FIWA -Hey! Thank you.
PM - of course i saw Chani's post..she's a wise woman - teaches me things all the time.
Flutter - my heart is pattering a bit faster.
All - woohoo. thank you.
Babe, I'm hoping that my first post back will be a good news post about the volunteer network that I'm hoping to start. Here's hoping I catch the powers that be in a good New Year's Cheer kind of mood.
Happy New Year. xoxo
Happy New Year to a dear friend. Thank you for everything. xo
May you have peace this next year. :)
Happy New Year.
This is just what I was thinking.
You and Chani.
YES!
I will continue my tradition of falling down, too. It's good to know I won't be alone.
Happy new year, beautiful friend. I know I count 2007 as a treasure for having found you. Peace and joy in abundance.
To fearlessness, indeed.
Happy New Year, Jen.
Happy new year! Fearlessness is a wonderful thing to aim for.
Happy new year to you too. Fearlessness feels right for you. I'm choosing only one word too.
Fearlessness. Perfect. (Except for Benjamin -- we're hoping he gets more fear.)
Happy New Year.

I can't wait to see what adventures come your way. I already think you are pretty fearless, dear.
I'm not making a resolution...more of a wish. No hospital stays in 2008! Its worth a shot, right?
Happy New Year! Resolutions are for suckers. How about Revolutions instead of Resolutions?
YES!!! No fear!
Happy New Year to you!
I like it. Go forth! I'll follow.
Excellent idea - although Who Is Bossy If Not Chronically Disappointing Herself? Happy New Year, friend.
in a strange way, i feel that making the leap into unknown situations has been my fear killer. chipping away at my need to control things has been very liberating. great suggestion, my sister.
Happy New Year woman. Meeting you was definitely a highlight of 2007 that I won't ever forget.
I'm glad you'll be there if I fall down...oh who am I kidding, WHEN. :)
Happy New Year!
I say hurrah to this! Hurrah!
Your baby shower is one of the few things I'm saying yes to this year as I am having a ME ME ME year. It will be fun to see what the village gets going in 2008!
Hey, we share a resolution. I see it in terms of taking more risks but in essence it is the same. Last year was the only year I could even remember my resolution by December much less feel as if I had accomplished it and it was because I used Tuesdays on my blog to revisit it. It's a very interesting practice and I plan to do it again this year - would love company if you feel so inclined. In any case, here's to a year where fear's grip is loosened by at least 25%!
You are too cool. You are what Maya Angelou meant when she talked of Phenomenal Women.
