finding joy in MOMENTs of TIME





Exploring the Art of Making Every Minute Count



I’ve been taking some time off in the evenings to put my feet up, relax, and enjoy a few old movies. And as I scroll through my streaming options, I’m amazed at how many shows or movies revolve around time or time travel.


Have you noticed that too? It got me thinking about how time—and saving it—is a recurring theme in our thoughts, conversations, and daily plans.





Of course, saving time would be much easier if, like in the movies, we had a handy time transporter or time machine! If you had one, what would you do differently to create more room in your often-busy day?


The good news is, while I don’t have a time machine to share, I do have some amazing tips and resources in this newsletter to help you save time and enjoy the moments.


Take a peek below to see what I’ve found—or save this post for the next moment you find time to relax, put up your feet, and enjoy the read.☺️



Here’s what you’ll find in this episode of colour chronicles:

Time has a way of slipping through our fingers, doesn’t it? But what if, instead of chasing after more hours, we slowed down and looked for the joy woven into each moment?





This free planner (see below) is your gentle invitation to pause, notice, and celebrate the little things that make life brighter. From the warmth of morning sunlight to a shared laugh or a creative spark, joy is often found in the most unexpected places—if we take the time to look.


Think of this planner as your personal treasure map for the day ahead. Along with planning your day, use it to jot down the moments that make your heart smile, the small wins that often go unnoticed, and the bursts of colour that add life to ordinary routines.


GRAB IT NOW

This article from ‘becoming minimalist’ shares some easy steps to escape the rat race and enjoy a slower, simpler, happier life:





‘All this busyness has overloaded our minds. And we walk around with this nagging sense that there’s something we forgot to do. Or we feel guilty when we actually do take time to do nothing, be lazy with some friends, or watch a worm inch its way across the sidewalk.


There’s just no rest; no sense of completion. Ever. And its eating away at us from the inside. Making it impossible to find a reason to smile, or be joyful, or just be.


But life doesn’t have to be so crazy. The craziness ends when people embrace the alternative: slowing down.’
