Come Back to Yourself

Notice · 08, from Part One

• Feel · The Kinder Sentence

  So write down the unkind thing you tend to say to yourself when you fall short. Then, underneath, write the sentence you would offer a dear friend who said that about themselves, and keep that one instead.

• Remember · The Child You Were

  So write about one ridiculous thing you believed as a child, and for how long you believed it. Then defend that kid. They had their reasons.

• Imagine · A Letter to Next Year

  There is a version of you one year from now who will read what you write today, and remember exactly where you were sitting.

Four prompts, one from each part, to print and try at home.

The Curiosity Journal

Believe · No. 2, from Part Three

• Wonder · Light From Long Ago

  Write a letter in light. Something meant for a reader a hundred years from now, who will not know you and cannot write back.

• Imagine · Six Impossible Things

  Write down six impossible things. Not unlikely things, actually impossible ones. Then pick the one you would most want to be true and write a paragraph as though it already is.

• Care · The Ripple

  Draw a stone dropping into water, with rings spreading out from it. On the innermost ring, write one kind thing you could do today. On the next ring, write what that person might do afterwards.
