Day 785 - Day 055
Lifetime Dream # 138 of my list of 155: I will keep a personal journal of 3,000 pages, reflecting the many different journeys, triumphs, and struggles that I have worked through in my life. I will keep the journal in an old world texting style where every page is styled and written different from every other page.
Completed On: December 16, 2008
I was in second grade when I started my first journal. I remember the first line of the page in my mind’s eye (yes that’s they joyous part of having a photographic memory). I remember where I was when I was writing it and what I wrote about. Over the years I have had several different journals written in several different types of books and locations. I once had a journal just on my personal experiences, camping experiences, travel experiences, musical experiences, and so on… exhausting.
When the world I was living in bottomed out, I actually was NOT journaling believe it or not. It is a part of my history that I don’t really understand why I wasn’t. When the dust started to settle and my life began to have some life, light and hope to it again I started planning out my next “be all, end all journal”. I wanted one journal- not half a dozen. I wanted one written in a cool style that was consistent and in an “old world texts”.
I can still remember nights at work writing down different ideas that I wanted to incorporate in the journal; the upper and lower lines of the pages are all written in rune code… texts that have moved and inspired my life, and they are re arranged in orders that bring order within the order… it took a while to design the pages, but once they were created I had my journal…
I have touched on so many things in the first journal. I completed it in another hard time of my life in 2008, and I have since begun a new journal. I don’t write in it like I once did, but I am going to be writing more and more this year. I get so much release from writing, and especially how I’m writing them now… few could really read them or understand the code I write in… I highly suggest writing to anyone who needs release. It’s the writing that brings the release… and for the record I’ve never gone back and re-read what I wrote.
