Morning Story / April 30-May 6, 2023

A compilation of morning stories, originally posted on Instagram

The final step in a morning habit stack I’ve been cultivating, practicing, and enjoying involves posting a “story” at Instagram. The step was initially just a photo, but it has morphed into a bit of extra writing, reflection, and philosophy that rounds out the span of morning.

These “Morning Stories” are simple in nature…. a photo of my journal, pen for the morning, and coffee…. and some on-the-spot composition and reflection.

Morning Stories from This Past Week:

In the Moment

(The image is created in the moment and can’t be edited later, which adds a letter of both transience and permanence to the process.) I’ve been writing and sharing these since February 2023 at Instagram. To view previous batches on the substack, see:

• March 19-April 1

• April 2-8

• April 9-15

• April 16-22
