Every year since 2004, Jill and I have created a “possibility for the year.” It’s the broad context in which our plans and resolutions etc take shape.

When we keep the possibility for the year in mind throughout the year, it’s been amazing. In 2006, we got distracted, understandably enough. But in 2007, we’re taking it on again.

The possibility we have created for our lives in 2007 is the possibility of vitality, discovery, and fun.

Getting that off to a pretty good start, I went for a vigorous, if brief, walk with a neighbor yesterday. (Hi Leslie!) Jill drank about twice as much water as usual, which is one of her specific plans inside this possibility.

I’ll be fleshing out further plans this week, but exercise and getting to know our area are top of mind.

Uh-oh, Noah’s waking up.
