A pilgrim of hope on an inner journey
Each day, I pray and, like a little squirrel, gather small bites of happiness along the way.

Today, I let go of my first pickleball paddle. I bought it three years ago when I just started playing. It carried the marks of a beginner and the memories of learning. The wooden paddle was heavy and often broke the plastic balls. Like many early online purchases, it was one of those small mistakes…

Today, I’m letting go of old scrap paper. These were handwritten reports from my old job, brought home when everything shifted to digital. For a while, I used the backs for printing and notes. It felt good, knowing that, even in a small way, I was helping the planet. Now I’m keeping just a few…

Today, I am clearing out my hair cap. When I purchased my heated electric hair cap, it came with a plastic disposable cap. The heat from the cap caused the dot printing on it to peel off. I ended up buying a lot of clear disposable hair caps. Yet, I don’t know why I never…

Today, I’m letting go of my cleansing pad. I bought it four years ago to reduce skin irritation during cleansing. But with mask-related redness, I had to minimize physical contact, so I stopped using it. I used it occasionally for washing my makeup brushes, but even that became rare. This post, like my lifestyle, is…

Today, I’m saying goodbye to the spray bottle that’s been with me for seven years.It was one of those small things that quietly helped me care for all my plants. I recently bought a new one that sprays more finely,so it’s time for the old one to finally rest. Sometimes it would leak a little…

Today, I’m letting go of a hotel card. It’s a small paper card from a hotel I stayed at in Tokyo this past spring. That stay remains one of my favorites. The location was incredibly convenient, and the staff’s kindness exceeded all expectations. The branch I stayed at even had a sauna, which helped ease…

Today, I’m letting go of a jewelry warranty card. I received it when I bought a pearl necklace at Numbering, a boutique on the hill in Itaewon this past spring.The warranty period was six months and expired on September 24.Since I won’t be visiting Korea any time soon, I’m sending it away now. These days,…

Today, I’m letting go of an old hard drive cable — technically, I’m returning it.For years, I couldn’t find the one I already had, so I ended up buying a new one. And of course, I found the missing cable right where I always reach for things. I never knew finding a lost item could…

Today I reused a hotel envelope. It was from the Ace Hotel, and I had kept it because I loved its design.I happened to need a thick, non-transparent envelope to mail a check,and there it was—waiting neatly in my drawer. If I hadn’t organized my home, I probably would’ve bought new ones.It feels good to…
