When I was younger, I loved the idea of Diaries. Okay, maybe I should back up and say that every night before we went to bed, my mom would write in our "Calenders". It was kinda like a journal, but just on a regualar calendar. Looking back, it was a great way for my mom and I to connect on what we did over the day. As we got older it moved into little books, and this continued until I was maybe 14 or so.
But my Diary was always place just for me. I would write my inner most hurts and anxieties and accomplishements. I looked back at my Diary from when I was about 10-15 and it's not very happy. It makes me sad. As I got older I started writing a lot more.
Eventually I started keeping 2 journals. One for good things, and one for bad things. I've been trying to write something good or funny every night. It's such a pick me up to look back at the good times when I'm feeling low. Or I'll put a funny picture or something.
