In case you need a reminder…
You are creative.
It’s easy to forget—amid everyday expectations and obligations—that creativity lives inside each and every one of us. Spoiler: it does. And honouring that creativity for even just a few moments is how we calm the mind, quiet the noise, and stretch out time.
Pick up a pencil, a brush, a marker. Draw a line, then another, and another. Connect your breath to your hand, your hand to the pen, the pen to the paper. Listen to the sound it makes. Watch how the lines appear. Feel how your body relaxes and notice how your thoughts soften.
Creativity is how we come home to ourselves.

![: If you noticed the fine ink lines on the watercolour cherries 🍒 card I shared on Wednesday, and wondered what pen I used, this is it… The Uniball Signo DX in 0.38mm black. I reach for this pen constantly—sketchbooks, cards, doodling, journaling—any time I want a clean confident line that doesn’t bleed into watercolour or smear when you breathe on it wrong. It’s smooth, consistent, under $5, and when it’s out of ink, it just stops—no trying to convince it to squeeze out another few strokes. I buy these by the box so I can quickly grab a new one and carry on without missing a mark. What’s your go-to pen for line work? 🖊️Is it the same pen you love for writing? ✍🏼[ If you’d like to receive a collection of Sparks like this one ✨ in your inbox every Sunday, the link to subscribe is in my bio ]](https://scontent-yyz1-1.cdninstagram.com/v/t39.30808-6/674925512_1555357536597583_3500172632623670821_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_e35_tt6&_nc_cat=104&ccb=7-5&_nc_sid=18de74&efg=eyJlZmdfdGFnIjoiRkVFRC5iZXN0X2ltYWdlX3VybGdlbi5DMyJ9&_nc_ohc=1R1sqeQK78sQ7kNvwErP1KR&_nc_oc=AdqGe-DGYYEH7ivyn76EE-yPvFqKyjGStBjLr3JNtMJEGRrZqxiLTYD3-vMkochjUVU&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent-yyz1-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&_nc_gid=ErH57CWuavaH0hkWi83odw&_nc_tpa=Q5bMBQGTPBD1WQruMmz_kpimjeIxHku9G8-IwXFHJQ_7_3CNBK5YQ8g3d8Xjy5o4Mew1h7lV9eTC0-a-&oh=00_Af77V-qQqnx79E7oyj4nZwdP7MI9sy3AD7J6EsWQZlpd3g&oe=6A0A2464)
