To nourish our journals, it helps to add new bridges leading us toward a more frequent practice. Pristine pages can be intimidating, indicating we should be applying only beautiful lines and elegant pros. A perfect page is not a fertile ground for creative insight. There is a delicious jumble to everyday life. Our journals can reflect that humanity honestly. We’ll be drawing and writing on top of random swatches of color. We’ll draw on top of writing and write on top of drawings. We’ll add some sketches of our humble habits like breakfast or grocery lists. Don’t be surprised, when the ordinary leads us gently toward profound.
