Karena- I love the concept of a 1,000-day goal coupled with a reflection of a quilt with personal meaning. There’s something quite beautiful about the way the two pairs together.

I loved this:

“The mid-morning sun casts a glow on the quilt as it streams through window. I have my coffee and, a bottle of water in front of me, and click on Spotify’s 40 Hz Binaural Beats. I pull out my deep blue leather-bound journal and my favourite Muji 0.25mm hexagonal black ink pen … and I start writing in long hand, feeling the words find their way onto the page, the draft of what I hope will happen over the next 1,000 days”

I loved the whole thing but especially that! I felt like I was right there with you!
