On journaling and patience

It reminded me how much I enjoy doing one thing at a time. Sometimes the best plan is to leave the phone at home and walk. The first attempt was a small disaster, the second one was surprisingly good. I am trying to write here more often, even if the posts are short.

Most of the afternoon went by without me noticing. By the evening the light was soft and everything looked a little kinder.

Nothing dramatic happened, but I came home in a much better mood. I did not plan much this time, and it turned out to be the best part.

The recipe is simple, the trick is to be patient with it. I keep a short list of things that made the day better, and this one made it.
