This Month | Chrysantemums

Honesty

Honesty deepens through small acts of truth-telling. Each daily action is a safe space to meet yourself as you are — no judgment, no performance. Over time, these tiny moments of courage grow into unshakable creative trust.

Joy

Joy grows best in small, steady moments. Each daily action is a simple way to invite light back into your writing life. When you give yourself a few minutes of playful presence each day, happiness stops feeling fleeting — it becomes your rhythm.

Loyalty

Loyalty is built through gentle repetition — the quiet choice to show up again and again. These daily actions remind you that devotion doesn’t need to be dramatic; it’s the calm, consistent care that strengthens your creative roots.

Finding Daily Joy in Rose Gold Clouds and Simple Pleasures

Journal question: What is a simple pleasure that always lightens your day? Write why

Journal snippet | Rose gold clouds across the wide green field of wild flowers. I can feel my shoulders drop. Like the sky saying - it is okay to take a break. Breathe

Looking outside the window

The best part of having moved is the surroundings. From every view, I can see all the shades of green that nature has to offer—from single blades of grass to the heavy crowns of the trees. This view served me well the other day. I thought I was relaxing, watching television after a busy day, but when I looked up and my eyes caught the beginning of a beautiful sunset, I could feel how much pent-up energy was still residing in my body after the move.

A New Daily Simple Pleasure

That’s why the rose gold clouds came to mind for this journal question. I’ve been longing for more nature, and now that we have it, I almost forgot to welcome this new daily simple pleasure—enjoying the view.

Looking out the window lightens my day because it reminds me to slow down and breathe. It reminds me that everything has a season, and today’s beauty is here to be savored. Doing something so simple, yet so soothing, reminds me that it’s often the lightest, most simple pleasures that lift my spirit the most.

And from that serene place, I find myself wondering if perhaps a poem is waiting behind the words rose gold clouds.
