Elizabeth Gilbert, in the book and movie “Eat, Pray, Love,” asked what the one word defined several cities – like New York was “Ambition” (or “soot”), London was “Stuffy” and Rome was “Sex.” The ‘one word’ definition was then given as a personal challenge – to define yourself in one word.
It’s an interesting, introspective exercise that explores our core beliefs, dreams, goals, hopes, values. And, with just one word, we’re forced to simmer through our history, past all the titles and ‘hats we wear,’ through what others think of us and on to what really is important, what Read More »

June 7, 2010 – 12:38 pm
You know the friend …
