#176: Cool Weather
This week brought a refreshing change—the weather finally cooled down to the mid-70s, and the nights are now crisp enough that we don’t need the air conditioner. It’s a small but welcome relief. My partner is convinced that this winter will be particularly cold; I suppose we’ll have to wait and see. But for now, I can feel fall approaching, and I couldn’t be more excited for the season’s arrival.
#177: Night Walk
One evening this week, I took a walk just after sunset, and it was truly magical. That time of day, when the sky is painted with the last hues of twilight, has always been a favorite time of day for me. As I walked, I noticed bats dancing through the air—two of them were either playfully chasing each other or competing for food. It was a small, moment that made the walk all the more enjoyable.
#178: Vegetable Soup
My partner and I whipped up a delicious vegetable soup this week, packed with kale, tomatoes, onions, carrots, green beans, chickpeas, and more. It turned out so good, warming us from the inside out. I’m incredibly grateful for the simple pleasure of cooking together and savoring a comforting bowl of homemade soup.
#179: Friends
I had the pleasure of hanging out with friends this week, and it reminded me just how much I cherish these moments. There’s something incredibly special about spending time with amazing people who uplift and inspire you. This week, I’m especially grateful for the warmth and joy my friends bring into my life.
#180: Meditation Room
At work, we have a special room designed for prayer, meditation, or simply finding a moment of peace. I’m so thankful for this space—I use it almost every day to recharge and center myself. With access to mindfulness app- Calm through my school, I feel fortunate to have these tools and spaces that support mindfulness in my daily life.
