I keep reading posts about people being happy to leave 2015 in the past, but 2015 was a pretty great year for me! In February, I took … Continue reading
Catching up on my ThinkKit prompts from 2014… What one word sums up the past year? Now: unpack, unfold, and uncover it. What does it represent?

Today’s ThinkKit prompt: Work, home, and _____. Where was your third place this year? Did you like it, love it, …or was it out of obligation? What feeling, sense, or vibe did you get from your third place? If someone can’t imagine the scene, give the lay of the land in words. Is there natural light? … Continue reading
Today’s ThinkKit prompt: Whether you asked for it – or not – what good advice did you get this year? Did it come from an unexpected source? Was it unsolicited, or did you need a word or two after an eventful day, week, or month? Has the advice changed the way you think about the world? Changed the … Continue reading
