“Fearless is having fears. Fearless is having doubts. Lots of them. Fearless is getting back up and fighting for what you want over and over again, even though every time you’ve tried before, you’ve lost. It’s fearless to have faith that someday things will change….Letting go is fearless. Then, moving on and being alright, that’s fearless too.” ~ Taylor Swift
My sister mentioned on her blog last week, her “word” for the year. She had heard of other bloggers having a specific word that they want to live by for the current year. Immediately I loved this idea and knew right away what my word would be: 
It’s no secret that I love Taylor Swift. One of the reasons I love her is because of how talented of a song writer she is. I mean, how does she even come up with some of her lyrics? I think that if she had never become a famous musician, she would’ve written novels or did something with writing.
Anyways, Fearless is my favorite album by her, and one of my favorite songs in general. Ever since she released that album, I’ve been obsessed with the word fearless.
fear·less
2013 will be my fearless year. Whenever I am in tricky situation, I will try to remember the meaning of the word. Not necessarily will I always be absent of fear (because life can be fearful at times), but I will remember the second part of the definition: bold or brave.

this is so awesome, I think being fearless this year will bring so many opportunities for you
Thank you!
I agree with alex- fearless is such a great word and can encompass so many different aspects of your life. I hope you can be fearless just like your idol. Also, I think it’s so cool that your sisters blog too!!
Thank you! I love that they do too
They are actually the ones who got me into blogging.
I love this, having a word to embody what you want to accomplish/be this year is great. I too love tswift and think this word definitely can be reliable in many situations!
I think it’s a goal that I definitely want to set every year, although fearless may just be my word every year
Love it:) Even though you know I don’t love T-Swift like you do, I love that quote of hers.
Love this post! That e card is too funny:)
Thanks! haha, gotta love e-cards.
Love your choice of words, girl… and love that you’re putting it on a ring to remind yourself of it. Being fearless can apply to so many different things, and I bet it’ll give you plenty opportunity for growth and new experiences!
Thank you Amanda!
This is a good word! I had a hard time thinking of mine! And I wrote about the same thing today
.
I’ll have to go read it
I absolutely love this post and word. It’s a strong yet beautiful sounding word (wow I sound so cheesy). Also, it’s one of my favorite Tswift songs too!
That’s a great idea how you chose to make a ring of it too, definitely a cute/inspirational idea for the new year.
