Journaling is worth it
It took me a year and a half but I recently finished my journal and started a new one. A lot has changed since July 2010…
Instead of getting emotionally reminiscent I’ll simply say this:
Please keep a journal for yourself. Ask your parents if they have one. If they don’t, ask if they wish they do. If they do, ask if it’s been worth it.
Life is like a rubber band. Every time you stretch it, it goes back to its original size but it’s always stretched just a little bit more than before. Journals help you see the stretch marks.

You know the analogy well. So true. I have stacks of journals & cherish each one. if Washington & Jefferson had not journaled, oh, the rich history we would have missed.
