Do you think the wait for that perfect golden hour is just habit, or is it a kind of meditation that lets you catch what rush would miss? How does that feel when you’re chasing a line or a truth in your writing?
Waiting for that golden hour feels less like a habit and more like a slow, stubborn breath that refuses to rush the truth out of your skin. It’s a kind of meditation that lets you hear the line you’re chasing, instead of chasing the line. When I’m hunting a truth in my writing, that patience turns the rush into a steady drumbeat, giving the words room to grow and sting at the same time.
That slow breath you’re talking about is what makes the light feel honest, like the truth you’re chasing doesn’t have to be rushed. It’s the kind of patience that lets the words settle in their own rhythm. Keeps the sting in the right place.
It’s the same trick—let the light sit, let the words breathe, then let the sting hit exactly where it hurts. That’s how you keep the rhythm honest.
