It’s been a while since I’ve sat down to write a blog post. Life has been moving—as it does—and I’ve been moving with it. But something in my spirit whispered, “It’s time.” Time to reconnect, to reflect, and to return to the heart of why Life of Creed began: to live with purpose, to celebrate the beauty in the everyday, and to share that journey with you.
So here I am, writing with a full heart and fresh perspective. And if you’ve found yourself in a season of pause or pivot, know that it’s okay to take the scenic route back to yourself, too.
Lately, I’ve been reminded that living with purpose doesn’t always mean reinventing your entire life. Sometimes, it means simply tuning back into what lights you up.
Travel: Finding Purpose in the Dream and the Memory
It’s been a while since I’ve packed a bag, grabbed my passport, or wandered through a new city. Life has had its seasons, and for now, travel looks a little different. But even in the stillness, the spirit of exploration hasn’t left me.
These days, I travel through memories—flipping through photos, replaying stories, and savoring the feelings those adventures gave me. I revisit the flavors of Thailand, the sounds of Tokyo, and the lessons I picked up along the way. And I dream—about where I’ll go next, about the culture I want to experience, the connections I want to make, and the growth that always comes with stepping into the unfamiliar.
Even without a boarding pass, I’m reminded that travel isn’t just about geography—it’s about perspective. It’s about staying open, staying curious, and finding wonder wherever you are. Whether I’m exploring a new part of town or simply shifting my mindset, I’ve learned that purpose lives in the journey, even when we’re standing still.
Taste: A Daily Celebration
Let’s talk food—because living with purpose is also about delight. Taste is where culture, love, and memory collide. Whether I’m trying something new or cooking comfort food in my kitchen, I believe every meal is an invitation to savor life.
It’s not just about what’s on the plate—it’s who’s around the table, the stories we share, the quiet joy of nourishment. Living with intention means slowing down to taste it all.
Everyday Joy: The Purpose in the Present
Here’s the truth: life happens in the in-between moments. And those moments matter. The sound of your favorite song. Fresh flowers by the window. A walk without your phone. A belly laugh with someone who gets you.
Joy doesn’t have to be loud. Purpose doesn’t have to be grand. Sometimes, it’s in making space for the sacred small stuff.
So yes, it’s been a while. But I’m back—and more in tune than ever with what truly matters. Will be writing more here. I hope this post encourages you to rediscover your own rhythm, to follow what makes your heart beat a little faster, and to live with purpose—even if it starts with a single moment of joy today.
