As another year approaches, many of us choose a word or symbol to represent an intention for the new year. While it may still be a bit early for that as we’re only halfway through October, I happened to notice a figurine while browsing on Amazon last week that felt just right for how I’d like next year to go! So I went ahead and bought it, found a place for it in a sunny room where I’ll see it regularly, and took this photo.
The title is Release Dreams Fairy Holding Dragon (I’ve made that into a link to the Amazon page for anyone who might be interested). It gives me a lovely visual reminder of what I want to do in the upcoming year—release my dreams to fly free and grow into something beautiful! And I do believe that seeing it every day will keep my thoughts focused on bringing more positive, creative energy into my life.

What a beautiful, whimsical ornament, Meg, combining fairies and dragons ~ how could it NOT work! 🙂
Thanks for your cheerful words of encouragement — I’m glad you like it too! 🙂
What a beautiful intention and perfect time of year to set it! Thanks for sharing your inspiration with everyone! 🙂
Glad you enjoyed the post, Richard, and thanks for stopping by and commenting!
HI Meg, love it so much! The figurine is beautiful, it’s magical! I did get a word for this year, my word is Magic. I love your idea of getting a solid symbol for it. And the year is really almost ending, I should choose a word for next year soon, and maybe get a figurine for it as you did. Thanks for the lovely idea.
Magic certainly makes a great intention — I hope you’re finding lots of it! Best wishes in both choosing a word for next year and finding a symbol that fits! 🙂
Setting forth your intention is part of the process — your new figurine is magical and provides you a visual for the course! Delightful! Thank you for sharing! 😀
Much appreciated, Becca — I always enjoy your comments!
I love this and love Nurturing Thursdays. I will look up her blog. Thank you for making my day.
Awesome — I’m sure you will enjoy it!!
