🌷Joy Journey Restart day 1 of 90🌷

Written By Monica Tojek

About two years ago, I started a "Creativity Journey" with the intent of creating a more joyful life. And it worked. By the end I was feeling consistently happier, more joyful. Some months later, I came to understand that for me, this means a connection with God in the way I understand God.

The joy quickly became unsteady. I let circumstances (both past and present) get in the way of my good feelings. Recently, the struggles have resulted even in feelings of despair.

A week or two ago, I knew I wanted to do some sort of 90-day journey, just didn't know how to fit in all the things I feel the need of in my life: organization, a tidy house with all those repairs done, maybe even some upgrades, more time creating art and designs, and so forth.

This morning, it all came together - a simple morning routine, similar to the one I did in July and August two years ago. And a simple evening routine - new this time - to include tea, a sticker added to a notebook cover (just to say "hey, I did well today" no matter the details, affirmations (also added in the morning routine), and answering three joy-related questions.

I don't know all the details, yet, but today I begin. This quick, less than 20 minute sketch, is the first of the 90 to be completed.
