Well if there is one thing I have been good at doing, its writing in my journal. It hasn't always been consistent but I've done pretty well. Looking back at my entry's now is almost painful though. I know I wrote my thoughts and feelings, but its not always something I'd ever want people to read. So I thought I would go back and sort of rewrite it adding my thoughts and perspectives that I have now. It wasn't that long ago so I think I will be able to remember it pretty well. Although my brain doesn't work as well after having a few kids...lol! I would like other's to be able to read what my childhood and teenage years were like without being embarrassed, especially my own kids. I guess it's sort of like writing my personal history (like our grandparents eventually do) only I'm starting younger, which might be better since my mind is a little fresher..lol! After my mom passed I've read her journals over and over. It makes me feel closer to her. I wish she had stuff written about her childhood and teenage years, so she kind of inspired me to do mine. I have a written copy at home and then I'll be posting entry's on my blog so I have it recorded in another place as well.
