Mood Writing ~ Writing mood
What am I in the mood to write ?
At this time of year, everyone rushes about, chases the infamous cozy vibe and seeks solace from old man winter's scorn.
I am one of those individuals.
Fairy lights, firelight, and cozy books set the mood just right.
It’s 5 a.m. on a cold winter day up north. I'm on the couch with a warm coffee (mostly cream and a little espresso) in one hand, while the other rests on one of my fur boys, Cash, who lies by my side. Sully prefers to stay a safe distance away. The shimmer of the fairy lights adds a comforting glow, while the words swirl up above as it awaits its home on the page.
What is this mood I’m in? What will fall onto the page this early morning?
Perhaps I will work on my story or,
let my heart spill over until the words heal its wounds or,
release my thoughts so I can turn another page in the book of life.
Whatever it is, writing serves as a way for me to express myself. There are two wonders in my little world that help me navigate through the plethora of emotions, and life’s moments.
My tears and my words.
I’ve often concealed my tears, offering apologies for no reason. I’ve ugly cried, written blurred lines through tears, and sometimes had the salty droplets fall unexpectedly. It’s one of my superpowers. Tears are my gateway to release energy and a means to keep going.
Here’s my favorite part—I have finally accepted that this is part of who I am.
I can cry if I want to!
As for today, there are no tears—just cozy feelings and cute dogs and, of course, writing.
Wishing you a winter filled with hot chocolate, chai tea, cozy books, and furry kisses, and may you have the happiest new y
ear.
