I used to look at the sky
and wanted to fly up high
to grab the brilliant stars as my prize.
But now I only look up to admire
the beautiful, big blue sky.
I might not be able to catch the stars,
no, not as my prize.
But they are there to look at and admire.
And they can be my guides.
In the darkness, the stars always shine
even though they are not mine.
I used to write poems about stars a lot. Today I wanted to write a new one, so here it is. I told you my Muse got back from vacation just a few days ago. I think it has to do with the new medication, probably.
I didn’t know whether downloading Love and Deepspace yesterday was a mistake. I already spent a lot of money on it. I wouldn’t say I regret paying since the content was satisfying. I love my fictional characters way too much. I have always loved them. This might have been one of the reasons I became a writer, right?
How imagination can make people spend their money!
Today, things went as planned. I cleaned two of our three bathrooms, vacuumed the floor, and did the laundry. I was proud of myself, not because I did the housework, but because I stuck to the plan.
As our house is now clean, I’m ready for work tomorrow. My husband and his friend will be working on installing the roof for his workshop tomorrow and the day after. Meanwhile, I’ll be working on my translating project.
I didn’t do much today, but I’m grateful for my life in general. I feel like I’m content with my life. I still haven’t tried Notion.
