I write entirely to find out what I am thinking, what I am looking at, what I see and what it means. What I want and what I fear. -Joan Didion
I think I was nine years old when I started my first journal. It was dusty purple and a unicorn reared up on its back legs graced the cover. I mostly wrote stories (there was one about an alien poinsettia) and sometimes wrote about stuff my sister and I did that day: played a game, had a fight, whatever kids do.
I'm 38 now and on journal #42. Yes, I've numbered them. :)
My journals are my constant companions, always providing a safe space for me to find out what I'm thinking, how I'm feeling, what I want and what I fear. I've uncovered so many things through journaling and learned much about myself. I don't think I'll ever stop journaling.
Keeping a journal isn't just about recording thoughts and uncovering deep truths though. It's also great for creativity, inspiration, gratitude, and personal growth.
