It's a way of knowing yourself and nurturing yourself, and as Holly says, writing is "a gift to your future and your present soul". Love the way she puts that!Melwykhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04885378201188978664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277775467976733660.post-28421688151677193152010-03-24T08:05:38.891-04:002010-03-24T08:05:38.891-04:00Lovely post!

Tried to make it a habit. But it never failed that I would forget all about it before January finished. My book blog is the longest I have written anywhere!<br /><br />I like the idea of the pregnancy diary. I think it is so sweet.<br /><br />Holly's book sounds like a good read.Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02706544792110129160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277775467976733660.post-57595374129667745452010-03-23T14:42:31.655-04:002010-03-23T14:42:31.655-04:00This is a great post, Lilly.

I have always kept a journal, not on a daily basis but I always have one available and ready to write in when I feel like it. Sometimes I take long breaks in between entries, sometimes I go for months writing everyday, it depends on my mood.<br />It's fun to go back and read my old diaries. Sure, some of the entries seem silly, embarassing or childish, but I was young when I wrote some of them! It's interesting to read what was important to me back then, who I was friends with, how I felt about things and it's amazing to see how things change as you mature. I have always been a fan of writing letters, and handwriting. There is something so personal about it and so immediate. You can't go back and just delete it like you can on a computer. Your immediate thoughts are recorded, you can't delete it after you write it & try to make it better. It is what it is! It makes it more interesting.<br /><br />This was a fun post, Lilly!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09866342436745173619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277775467976733660.post-2767448482941118742010-03-23T07:51:04.341-04:002010-03-23T07:51:04.341-04:00Thank you so much for the opportunity to guest bl...Thank you so much for the opportunity to guest blog! I try to journal a few times per week and also attempt a balance of good and bad entries (although I think it helps to push my frustrations into paper;)Holly Christinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277775467976733660.post-78283050542994203562010-03-22T21:49:36.521-04:002010-03-22T21:49:36.521-04:00When I was a kid (7-8), I used to have one.

Eventually, I stopped and when I started working I realized that it would be pretty amazing to write more about my everyday life aside from the usual meetings and client call schedules.Victor | UPrintinghttp://www.uprinting.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277775467976733660.post-79412670285784647492010-03-22T11:36:38.521-04:002010-03-22T11:36:38.521-04:00Wonderful post :)
