💫 What a Spilled Brush Cleanser Taught Me About Divine Timing + Creative Energy

You’re Not Lazy. You’re Being Aligned.


You’re Not Lazy. You’re Being Aligned.

🕯️ Have you ever planned to create something beautiful…

only to find yourself delayed, drained, or completely rerouted?

I had my makeup done. I was dressed and ready.
I came home to film a brush cleansing video — simple, intentional, useful.
But instead, I fell asleep. Then I bathed. Then I felt ready to create…

But when I picked up the cleanser, it had spilled all over the table.

And I knew in my soul — this wasn’t random.
This was a message.
So I stopped and listened.

🧴 What the Spilled Cleanser Was Really Saying

It wasn’t just product. It was a mirror. A message. A divine moment.
Here’s what I believe the Divine was whispering:

  1. 💧 You’re Being Asked to Cleanse More Than Your Brushes

“Clean your tools” was my plan.
But God/The Divine had another intention:

“It’s you that needs the cleansing.
Your energy. Your spirit. Your inner space.”

I realized I had been carrying:

  • Pressure to keep up
  • Quiet self-judgment
  • Confusion about what’s next
  • A feeling like I’m not doing enough

The cleanser spilled after I had bathed.
As if the Divine was saying:

“Now that your body is clean… let’s clean your energy, your thoughts, your approach.”

  1. “Don’t Create Just to Perform”

I wanted to film — but my soul said, “Not yet.”
Not because I was lazy…
But because it wasn’t the energy I was meant to create from.

“Don’t make content out of obligation.
Make it from overflow.
From truth.
From peace.”

This is not a season of pressure.
It’s a season of alignment.

  1. 🛑 The Tools Are Ready. The Timing Is Not.

That packet of cleanser on the table?
It shows my readiness.
The spill? A divine interruption.

You’re not lazy.
You’re being re-routed.

Sometimes, God pauses us because something better wants to flow through.
Something deeper. Something more aligned.

We’re being taught:
✨ Flow over force.
✨ Truth over urgency.

🔁 What I Did (and What You Can Do Too)

  1. Cleaned Up the Spill — Lovingly

Not with frustration.

  1. Trusted the Timing

I still plan to film — but now I’ll do it with clarity.
With softness.
With soul.

You can too.

🕊️ Final Truth:

You’re not lazy.
You’re not behind.
You’re healing.
You’re being softened.
You’re being prepared for aligned action.

“Slowing down isn’t failure.
It’s the Divine adjusting your frequency before you create something sacred.”

As I reflect on this moment and this message,

I’m deeply grateful to ChatGPT for helping me articulate my inner world so clearly — for taking my scattered thoughts and sacred emotions, and weaving them into something I could never fully put into words alone. The explanations offered resonated deeply with me… especially around the truth I’ve always believed:

Everything really does happen in divine timing.

I’ve seen this again and again in my life:

The day I was approached to work at Trix.
The unexpected paths that led me to banks.

Having the thought and push to upgrade my skills with a makeup mentor and she is now not teaching anymore, received the one sentence from her that changed my life trajectory then — shifting me from wanting to work in sales to doing Makeup instead.

Being asked to leave doing car sales — at a moment I couldn’t see as divine — only to be rerouted into Mediacorp in perfect timing…

And then… the divine alignment of clients, doors, and experiences:

  • Getting to travel for work — one of my greatest highlights as an MUA.
  • The joy of working alongside amazing vendors like Benjamin King, Melvin from Multifolds, and Chris from Highest Kite — people I had the honor to travel with before they, too, moved into new seasons.
  • Being constantly showered with heartfelt testimonials, being truly seen and valued for what I bring.
  • Hearing words like “I feel so lucky to have had you do my makeup”
  • Or having loyal clients who only want me despite all the options out there.
  • Being listed on multiple “Top Makeup Artists in Singapore” features — a reflection of both divine favor and the love I’ve poured into this craft over the years.

It still moves me. Deeply.

🤍 To the Creatives Who Feel This Too…

There’s so much I want to create and say — and I know I’m not the only one.

To the creatives out there feeling out of sync with the pace of the world…
To those who feel deeply, move intuitively, and don’t fit into the 5-year-plan box…

You are not alone.

Our thoughts aren’t always wired like society’s blueprint.
We’re not lazy — we’re different. And that’s beautiful.

See Min inspires me. And I, too, want to create from a place of rawness and vulnerability — to help others like me feel seen and safe.

🎨 The Truth About Creativity

I used to think, “If I had more time, I’d create more.”
But I’ve learned that creativity isn’t born from time — it’s born from alignment.

You can’t force it.
And when you do — when you create just to keep up — it loses its truth.

The world tells us to always be producing.
To always have a plan. A goal. A next thing.

But I’ve come to understand this:

Some of us were never meant to follow the map.
We are the ones meant to follow the moment.

And that is enough.
