Daily carries.

Need to keep reminding myself of the importance of ritual in my life. When I forget it, when I forget myself, I find myself feeling so adrift. Like I’ve lost something. Ritual grounds me in a way few things do. Writing as a ritual. Fragrance as a ritual. Water breaks as a ritual. Lip balm because I perpetually forget that last one.

I love how walking is used by authors back then as a metaphor for female agency. For example, Pride and Prejudice by Austen, North and South by Gaskell and Lady Chatterley's Lover by D. H. Lawrence to name a few.

I have peace and almost joy, because books, chats, and the sweetness of the air are so dear to me.
