<div class="text-justify">

Since I discovered writing, it has been more like a portal into a new dimension—one where I get to access the vault of my thoughts and assess them. It all started with me scribbling ideas into my notepad on my devices a few years ago, nothing particularly direct—just random thoughts in a few words.Then one day, a friend introduced me to the practice of writing my thoughts down in a journal.

I got one and tried fully expressing my thoughts, and that's when the eureka moment came. I had found a new way to talk to myself. <sub>I'd like to believe everyone does that.</sub>

And it felt more exhilarating the first time I wrote down everything in my heart, and it still does when I read them days or weeks later.

However, since it was my first time journaling, collecting my thoughts categorically was not considered, so I eventually abused my journal: I began writing things that could have been on random sheets of paper or that should have been on my walls instead. And as time passed, I wrote less and less until I wrote nothing at all.

Nevertheless, I found Hive, and my writing kicked off again, and I have been loving it ever since. But there are actually certain thoughts that cannot come out here. They say if you don't want someone's opinion on your thoughts, don't share them in the first place. So I am going back to scribbling my thoughts again, and where better to do so than in a book that's appealing? That's where *Elegant Shelves* came in.

@sekani makes beautiful journals and owns Elegant Shelves. She was super kind enough to surprise me with this beautiful new journal of mine that you see here in this post. As you can see, she makes them out of love and genuine care.

Photography has always piqued my interest, and anything that piques my interest is likely to be something I dabble in.And for years now, since I got my Redmi Note 8 Pro (my previous phone), I have been keen about catching what my eyes observe on cameras. Since I do not have an actual camera, I just make do with my phones and process them.

She had asked for photos of this new journal of mine from my perspective, but since my now-old phone (the Note 8 Pro) had issues with its camera, the photos had to be delayed until I got a new phone. And now that I have gotten a new one, I have been on a shooting spree <sub>...with cameras and not guns, please.</sub>

I prepared the scene, my little cocoon, for shooting, and voila! *click! * *click! * *click! *
