There are years that ask questions and years that answer. - Zora Neale Hurston

2013 was a year that asked a number of BIG questions:

What do I value - REALLY? Not specific activities, things, or people . What values underlie my peak experiences and are at the heart of the messages of the people I admire most?
How do I define my life well-lived?
How fully is this idea of my life well-lived being expressed today (pie chart-style!)?
What do I feel called to contribute?

I have a feeling that 2014 will be a year that answers because I keep arriving at the same conclusions (a surefire sign that I'm on to something!); I'm willing to take action that I was not ready to take in 2013; and, to be frank, I'm all questioned out.

So here's my roadmap for 2014+ (a set of value word-strings):

Connection/community/relationship/humanity

Adventure/autonomy/freedom/learning

Love/kindness/joy

And into the year I go!
