Today I spent some time unpacking some stuff from the luggage of my heart and soul. I don’t know why I haven’t done this sooner. Journaling independent of one’s blog is a good way to get your thoughts out of your head and onto paper or pixels. Your experiences shape who you are and if they can help someone else then its a good thing. Now not everything has to or should be shared, everyone is entitled to keeping things close to home. You owe it to yourself to unpack things to get it off your shoulders.
Perhaps I need to do more exploring things rattling around in my head using a word processor vs. WordPress. A private stream of consciousness can help you organize your thoughts and to make sense of things that trouble your soul. Many of you do this already so this is old hat, for me this is a new thing I hope to do more of because I find writing stuff out can help me make more sense of it all.

I’ve been writing my most innermost thoughts in a private journal for decades – it’s a wonderfully therapeutic hobby, and I thoroughly recommend it! 🙂

I used to journal, and fell out of the habit. But, I carry a mini pink notebook around, and I use that whenever I get an idea or hear a good quote. I just need to get better about referring back to it more often. Thanks for sharing!

My blog is known for telling it like it is; however, some might be surprised to know that there is a lot I don’t share there – I have been journalling since my school days, getting out all the pain and also the good things that I only want to share with myself.
I am glad you found your way to the world of journaling. You won’t regret it.
