Keep or Part?
Oh, dear used cookie paper cups, what possible second life can I create for you? 🤷♀️
It has become harder and harder for me to discard things, especially after August 7, 2021. My mom was always aware of her environment, she reduced, reused and recycled. After her passing, I realize I'm constantly looking for possible ways to reuse materials that are not needed. I certainly don’t want to be wasteful but I also don’t want to hoard stuff.
Bye bye, cookie paper cups.

母親過世之後，我便把她用的被子帶著在身邊，那是她親手縫製的。
用久的被子都有股霉味。但，她很特別。不管晴天雨天，她都散發著太陽的味道。在家中就會把她抱在懷中、時而不經意的就睡著，還會輕輕的吸一吸，如此溫暖的味道，我很是喜歡。
我想，這就是我母親的味道。

I don't feel well. After all these years, I assume I have learned to be better at listening to my own body, yet she just shocked me by showing me otherwise.
Usually, we have our good and bad days, but this week has been especially rough. It feels like we're in the middle of the ocean trying to stay afloat and have yet to find the rhythm to paddle in sync. Though we are both exhausted and frustrated, I still believe we will get through this together.

I have a well-used pruning scissors with rusted tip and a grey plastic grip. It was a hand-me-down from Nancy for harvesting her vegetable patch in return for a few cat-sitting favors
Over the years, I have taken a liking to this pair of scissors and found myself many times on a walk or hike wishing I had brought it with me. Finally this summer, I decided that it should have a spot among the keys, the iPhone, and the hand sanitizer in my everyday bag.
I believe we sometimes do carry one or two unusual items with us, and mine is this pair of down to earth pruning scissors.

The truth is, I can write and I can't write. I discover Moon List when looking to start a project for myself in hope of learning to write again. And, What better way to start my voice finding process than by writing about things that I'm drawn to.
