Journal Templates
While wondering through Borders, I came across a journal. It wasn’t your standard blank journal, it was more of a journal template. I didn’t take note of the publisher or name, but it did strike me as odd.
Why would someone need a template for journaling? Okay, maybe it’s not that odd because some people do [...]Collecting Epiphanies
A tip for collecting your life lessons by perusing your old journal entries.
Journal Guilt
It’s strange to read that some people actually feel guilty when they don’t journal for a while. I personally don’t feel guilty if I don’t write for a few days (heck, entire months have gone by where my journal was neglected), because I know that, like a trusted friend, it will be there when I [...]
The Grass is Always Greener
It’s pretty early in the morning and it seems to be one of the few times I can get some peace.
I slept well last night — probably fell asleep around 11pm — and woke up early with the sunrise. I like it; this is how it should be back home.
As I write, I’m enjoying a [...]Starting to Like My Moleskine
It’s been about a week since I started jotting down notes in my tiny Moleskine journal. Give me a couple more days and I believe I will have mastered the fine art of tiny writing.
Though, I’m still trying to figure out what all the fuss is about, I do thoroughly enjoy the paper. The [...]Foolish Fools
My journal is where I’m able to voice my exasperation with some people. Today, it’s all about the foolish fools that we must suffer in everyday life.
Something for nothing, that’s your game. You feel that everyone else in the world is indebted to you and must bow before your knees. Well, my dear fool, that [...]
Finding Mr. Right
Sometimes it’s good to laugh at oneself.
I know I’m not ugly — for all intents and purposes, I’m actually pretty. Men find me attractive and I’m sure I’ll have no trouble getting asked out by Mr. Right one day. Heck, I’ve already been asked out twice by two absolutely wrongs. There’s still hope.
An entry dated [...]Dreaming Big
I want wealth and power, but I also want the sense and knowledge to wield them both wisely. I want to travel and visit Europe, Asia, Australia, South America, all over the world. I want to learn at least seven languages fluently. I want to be daring and exciting and when it’s my time to [...]
Starting the New Year
Reliving a New Year can be amazing, especially if you’ve made significant changes in the year past. It’s amazing just how much my life has changed in just one short year.
It’s the first day of the New Year. A fresh start and I am transforming this year into one of the greatest years for myself [...]Wisdom from the Past
It’s nice to go through your previous journals and review just how far you’ve come in that time. For the next few weeks, that’s probably what I’ll be doing here, pulling snippets from my past journal entries.
And to get the ball rolling, here’s a nice bit of wisdom I stumbled across today:
…maybe it’s just time [...]
