Appreciate: my word for the New Year. I am thinking of "value" or "cherish" or "delight in" even simply "enjoy".
Not gratitude. Gratitude is more of a giver/receiver situation. Thanksgiving. A good thing, but not what I am thinking of.
I appreciate a funny comment on my first post about appreciate..
(editor's note: I appreciate the comment on this entry.) Oh, I do appreciate every comment.
Appreciate! Appreciate Sweet Pea's cheer in the morning; Runner Don's taking pictures of the food we cook.
I'm thinking I will appreciate the first 5K race of the season.
I will appreciate the streets being clear of ice so I can run outside.
I will recognize a momentary occasion for joy when it appears.
A sunset, a child, a joke, a tender touch, a cheer offered by someone for someone else, the flavor of fresh fruit, a laptop and a cell phone that work, the sound of the dishwasher starting up, the sound of a voice I recognize, a breeze in my face, a new friend, an old friend... maybe you.
Appreciate today as the best day of the year.
