It's easy to forget to enjoy life's simple pleasures when you feel overwhelmed. This month's Photo Blogging Challenge theme is a good reminder to slow down and appreciate the simple, good things all around us.

Nice, New and Looking Ahead
January is the ideal month to savour all that's nice and new in your life. And to spend time looking ahead to the rest of the year. Anticipating the good things to come can really amplify your sense of happiness in the present.
Black and White
Black and white. It's a challenging photographic technique. Another approach? Aim your camera at black and white subjects!
Photo Blogging Challenge – Letters (July 2020)
As a long-time blogger, I regularly notice how there's something about translating thoughts into letters that makes the brain slow down. It's a form of meditation, where the object of focus appears in black and white as fingers depress computer keys. On really good days, I enjoy a flow state from the time I click "start a new post" until I click "publish". Those days are rare. For the photo blogging challenge, the process lasts a month!
Photo Blogging Challenge – Jingle All the Way (December 2019)
There's so much jingle-jangle during the holiday season: Salvation Army Santa's at donation boxes, Christmas music streaming from the speakers in every store, the tiny bells attached to my holiday socks, and my nerves after a long-day of shopping or too much holiday hostessing! No wonder PBC host PJ assigned Jingle All the Way for this month's theme. 🙂
