Essence - My word for 2011

This year I thought that I would start off with this topic with a group of definition to help me focus on why I have chosen this word...Essence.

• the basic, ral and invaiable nature of a thing or its significant individual feature or features
• the most significant element, quality or aspect of a thing or person
• the curcial element
• the inward nature, true substance or constituatin of anthing as opposed to what is accidental, phenomenal, illusory
• something that exists especially a spiritual or immaterial entity

Sumonyms for essence....substance, spirity, lifeblood, heart, principle, soul, core.

I bought this little book Essence.  Inspiration for a life of abundance and happiness.  Published by Affirmations Publishing House to help keep the focus.

For me I have chosen essence so I can define who I am more clearly.  I don't mean a wife, mother, daughter, etc I mean who I really am deep inside.

Now to reflect a little and get to it.
