Day 3 – Stillness

Stillness can be an unsettling thing. We’re used to motion – to doing, planning, fixing and striving.

But sometimes, what looks like inaction on the outside is quiet transformation on the inside.

Today’s prompt invites you to listen for what your stillness might be saying.

Today’s Prompt

What has been quiet lately — and what might that quiet be holding?

You might write about:

  • a pause you didn’t choose
  • waiting for something you can’t yet see
  • peace, rest, or silence after motion
  • stillness that feels uneasy or unfamiliar

Write for a few lines or a few pages — whatever stillness asks of you today.
