I invited women I trust, admire and adore to share with me their favorite word...

I received over 100 e-mails and included all the words on this piece.

Joy is an internal thing. We are born joy. We are always joy - always.
If joy is not present it is only because there is something temporarily displacing it on the surface.

There is no opposite word for joy. Joy is joy, whole and complete.

- Terreeia

One of my favorite words ‘cherish’.

Why? Each moment we have an opportunity to do something we want...

so we should cherish each of those moments.

-Buffy

Slow - I am learning that lately just a little bit outside your day to day

if you slow down (which is hard for me) and actually listen

you will hear so much more of who and what is around you.

-Julia

Serendipity...

It doesn’t even sound like a word...

but it is a wonderful word meaning:

finding things without even trying.

-Beata

I will give you three:

Power, Inspiration and Creation.

-Kim

Dare to Risk.

-Gina

Joy.

Definitely my favorite word.

After that I think it is Abundance and Iridescence.

-Silken
