A New Daily Ritual: Per Day LA

One thing I have been interested in recently is routine and ritual.

Although we ARE what we eat, we ARE what we do. Most of us go to school or have jobs that define us, because how could they not? That is the very thing we are doing for most of our waking hours.

My entire life, I have been trying to get away from those rituals and routines. However, now that I am officially an ADULT and I get to do WHAT I want to do WHEN I want to do it, I find myself craving rituals, routines, and continuity.

Although I love and embrace change, there is something that can be said about familiarity. Whether it's the routine of making that cup of coffee in the morning or checking your email at night, we really are creatures of habit.

We all have vices, and habits can be good or bad. But I am proud to say that Per Day LA has been a habit of mine for the past month, and it has been a positive one. It allows me to look at each day individually, and slows down the seemingly accelerated passing of time.

--- Is it really already MID MAY?? ---

In all seriousness, what I envision for PERDAYLA is being a part of peoples daily ritual. For people to glance at what is going on in Los Angeles, as well as learn a bit about what happened today in history.

Hopefully it can be a positive ritual for some of you as well!
