When i struggle to find the joy I switch up my artistic outlet. I'll start drawing, or making things until I'm ready to have that conversation with the page again.

Variety *is* the spice of life -- and spice has definitely been known to bring joy! It also takes the pressure off, I find.

Thank you so much, Despina! Definitely share if the challenge brings up anything for you -- I find these reflections to be more and more necessary the faster life goes.

This is exactly the post I needed to read at this moment. I'm trying to rediscover that love of writing, but so many things in life keep getting in the way.

I'm so glad it resonated with you. Sometimes joy feels like the most difficult thing to hold on to -- the first thing to go. But it's so vital to everything else. I hope you find a way to reconnect with that aspect of your craft. Definitely let me know what you discover.
