Photo from Kind Notes
I'm a bit slow this morning. I think the anticipation of this being my last day of work before the holiday is the reason I stayed in bed longer than I should have. I've got to finish at least three work projects before I can check out of work stuff and with no fun on the schedule it was hard to get up.
Since I journal in the morning my entry today was rushed and I lacked motivation. Whenever this happens I pull out a Kind Note from the jar. My friend sent me the Kind Notes Happy Birthday jar a few years ago and I love it. They make jars full of tiny note cards in envelopes filled with....you guessed it - kind notes.
I use it for inspiration when I'm feeling boo.
Today's note reads:
Be who you are
and say what you
feel, because those
who mind don't
matter and those
who matter don't
mind.
-- Dr. Seuss
Just reading the name at the end had me smiling and regaining some whimsy. I was thinking about using a jar like this for journal writing prompts. I'd call it my journal jar. I could put little slips of paper with prompts, inspiration, quotes or lines from my favorite songs.
Let me know if you've seen something like this out there for journal writing prompts or if you use one.
