Hello, I am Celeste. Welcome to all of you who are new here! If you have not done it yet, subscribe to receive letters on creativity, mental wellness, mindset and more. Take a look at my monthly prompts if you are looking for writing inspiration.

I am now in the kitchen of the new place as I am typing this. It is quite a hectic move. I am still unpacking boxes now. Hope that everything settles soon.

As I was dealing with tedious tasks around my new home, organizing things (especially the tangled cables we hate) is testing my patience. Music, decluttering and organizing my Notion make me feel much better.

Spring cleaning but it is autumn

We love watching people do spring cleaning. As autumn has arrived, it is the start of another season and weather, it feels refreshing to declutter and donate some clothes that no longer resonates with our current self. Don’t hesitate if you have not worn certain clothes in a year, it has a better place to belong than the back of your closet.

As you declutter your physical and digital space, it leaves you more room for other projects and creative work.

Stunning Notion dashboard

I am not the first one who puts GIF or images in Notion. I never thought of adding GIF but moving boxes around makes me want to do so. It makes tackling tasks much more pleasing and less tedious.

the darkness of my own doing
hold onto change
and leap
A fearless fall,
a daring spring
it’s a freeing thing
Many kinds
of minds,
many seasons over time
Spending a decade
in the shade
sunshine for the rest of my life
and it hits the front of the eyelids
just right
