Looking back at my old blog posts, I realized that I have been keeping myself busy with all sorts of leisurely pursuits for years ā even when I was still working. Coloring, creating art journals, doodling, putting together jigsaw puzzles, making handmade cards, and trying just about anything that catches my interest had always been part of my life. Now that I have left the 9-to-5 world behind, I have more time to enjoy these little creative adventures.
For this post, though, I simply want to share some of the pages I have colored so far this year. I like having these little records of my leisurely pursuits. Someday, when I look back on them, I hope I’ll smile at the things I tried, the things I enjoyed, and perhaps even see how much I’ve learned along the way.

Sometimes, happiness is as simple as a little colour on a blank page and the joy of making it your own.
