Everyday Magic 03

Tracy Benjamin shares photos of everyday magic on her website, Shutterbean

I was going through my photo archives recently and realized the last time I deliberately posted about Everyday Magic was back in 2024.  Since then, a lot of life has happened. There’s been grief, change, beauty, exhaustion, growth, and many moments where I’ve had to remind myself to keep paying attention. 

Last year, I started writing down everyday magic and “Tiny Little Joys”  in one of my planners, thanks to The Joy Reset book written by my friend MC.  You can see some of my pages over on The Handwriting Club if you’re interested.  

Here’s some magic from the past:

Everyday Magic 02

If you’ve been going through it too, I hope these photos remind you that there’s still magic worth noticing. Sometimes paying attention is how we keep going. 

Thankfully, there’s still magic to experience in this world.

Here we go!
