Journaling Reads:
I started my blog in August of 2000. This summer, it will be ten years since I wrote my first few words.
Ten years.
In that time, I’ve had periods where I wrote several times a day and periods where I barely wrote at all. For a while it was all about my thoughts, then it was only photography, and then about my kids. Scrapbooking. Reading. Basically, whatever my current obsession was, my blog became about that. And today, I blog at least twice a day. I keep a daily journal of my life, of my thoughts, of my gratitude.
And one of the things I am most grateful for is the blog itself. It’s a record of my life. My passions. My thoughts. My pains and joys. The cities I’ve lived in, the chances I took, the struggles I had. I love going back through the years and reading random entries. I love reliving those moments.
Each time I feel tired and not in the mood to write my blog, I remind myself how much I love having it and I sit and write.
