Explore is my word


Jen from Denton Sanatorium challenged her readers to, like in Eat Pray Love, come up with one word that describes them. I've thought about this for alittle bit, and been over a few words, and I think I've found my word - my word is "Explore". Maybe because to explore also means to discover.  I love exploring in every sense, I have even when I was little. With my sister and brother we used to explore through a store together (aka run around and "discover" new things), we'd call it exploring. Whenever we'd go to a new place, we'd always all says let's go explore, and we'd go around and see the new things about a place. I think I still do that today but in life too. I love trying new things, just to feel how they feel with me. Like trying law school, going to yoga school, moving to the city for theatre and media school, then acupuncture school, traveling to new places or going to new places I've never been. There's something I find so beautiful about looking at something for the first time. Sometimes when I go to places I've been before, I try to find a spot or something I haven't seen the last time and I discover what it is. Sometimes if I've done something before, I pretend like this is the first time I'm doing it, so that I can maybe feel or see something different, even funny things like if I'm going for a run around the same block I always go on, and try to find things that I haven't seen before, so I can pretend like I'm exploring a new way!  Even when I watch a movie that I've seen many times before, I love exploring the feeling that I feel when I watch certain parts. So yup I think my word is Explore.  Exploring life, exploring feelings, exploring love. I remember before I met my husband, I explored romantic relationships, and it wasn't until I gave up exploring that part of my life that I finally found the partner who I knew I wanted explore the rest of my life with!

Whats your word?

  4. Yay! You played! I love your word. I remember going exploring when I was a kid. Kids today usually don't explore. Mostly because they can't. They just don't have the same freedoms. Great post Nikki.

  8. This has been one of my favorite link parties ever-reading everyone's words choices-exploring who they really are-has been a great trip. Your word choice is so interesting, I haven't been by your blog before, but I read a few back posts, and I'd have to say it's a great fit! Loved your post, and am so glad I stopped by.
