There is the old quote that reads "Do what you love and you will never work a day in your life".
While I do really enjoy my work it does still feel like work so I take pleasure in finding other ways that bring me joy. If you follow us here, or on our other platforms, you know that the quickest way to serenity for me is in the pages of a book. That being said in the past year I have tried to find more outlets that bring me an inner calm, which has proven helpful during these last few months.
For me those things turned out to be Bullet Journalling, or more specifically drawing, and creative writing. Within this blog my writing has evolved into something that I am proud to share and my confidence has grown to perhaps take things a step further. With delight I see my drawings improve as I fill page after page with colour and meaning. Rewardingly, when I concentrate on these activities, my mind is free from the strife of daily life, allowing me to unplug and find peace. That peace rejuvenates the soul and brings balance to my day.
What I love most is that these are small things, there is no big production needed to get started, in my case just pencil and paper. What will it be for you? Think about finding something that you enjoy and cultivating it and losing yourself in it for awhile. Who knows you may actually FIND yourself in the process.
What is your bliss?
