Oxford's Word of the year for 2024 is 'brain rot'. Are you
familiar with this term? Do you suffer from the condition? Ha! This is a term
used to 'capture concerns about the impact of consuming excessive amounts of
low-quality online content, especially on social media'. If you were
choosing a word to capture 2024 (for the nation/world, not your own life
personally) what word would you choose?
The only word that popped into my head was unstable and yeah, I
think the world is unstable at time.
It's National Polar Bear Plunge Day (January 1) ...will you
be participating in one of these events (or even your own)? How will you spend
the first day of this brand-new year? Do you have a traditional New Year's Day
menu?
Well since I am an Aussie living down under this is not a thing here,
also those who partake in such events are mad in my opinion.
What's something that
brings you joy and how will you do more of it in this new year?
There are many things that bring me joy but can’t think of anything
I want to do more of.
Do you struggle with the
January blues? What's one thing you can/will do to keep them at bay?
Nope don’t have issues with
the start of the year
Will you choose your own personal word of the year for 2025?
What about a goal, resolution, or maybe even a bucket list? Elaborate as much
or as little as you like.
My word would be acceptance, because I feel like is better when we
accept that some things are not in our control and not everyone will agree with
your point of view.
I do not make resolutions because those fail, I do not have a bucket
list because often those will fail, a goal is more achievable, but I don’t have
any.
I live life one day at a
time and just roll with the flow.
Insert your own random thought here.
If someone is able to accept what is, then that person may feel
less stressed, to truly believe in God one must be willing to give control over
God, choosing and believing he is running the show and that we are in strong
and good hands.
In order to love unconditional, one must be willing to accept someone
as they are and not want to change them in any way.
