2012: A Year of Beauty, Balance and Delight


Have you come across the idea of choosing a word to focus on at the beginning of each year? I have tried this in previous years, with mixed success. To be honest it has often felt a little forced, and I rarely stuck with my word for the whole year. Like a poorly thought out New Year's Resolution, some words haven't even made it to the end of January.

This year however, instead of searching for a word, three words have been insistently knocking at my door, asking - demanding - to be let in. Those words are Beauty, Balance and Delight.

Over the next twelve months - and perhaps longer, I intend to actively welcome Beauty, Balance and Delight into my life. On this blog I will explore what that means, in theory and in practice. I don't know exactly how that's going to work. This is the first step on an intriguing journey, and as yet I am unsure where it will lead. Will you join me?

  3. Ohh alright, as it's you. And as I am an art historian and ex-curatorial person I have an interest in beauty and delight... balance I struggle with... a Scorpio tends to all or nothing which can occasionally be fun but isn't about balance.

    I hope your new year is a fabulous thing of beauty and delight...oh alright and balance!
