Month in Haiku’s — November, 2018

I may have mentioned this before, but I started a little journaling project for November that required me to write a daily Haiku to sort of sum up the day. It was an interesting challenge, and one I am excited to bring into December and the New Year. 

It was good to sit and self reflect at the end of each night on what I had done that day, how I felt about it and then jot it down as 3 simple lines. It was a bit of a struggle to get them to fit the structure of 5/7/5. But I think they all work.
