The answer is simple! I love journaling and crafting…why not share it and maybe inspire a few of you along the way.  For as long as I can remember I have kept a journal where I write in daily. I write my thoughts, feelings, things I want to remember and just recently I started including my prayers in my journal. There’s just something about writing things down that satisfies me.

Not too long ago I went back and read some of my old journals. It was amazing to me to see where I was mentally and emotionally years ago. It impressed me to see the mental growth I’ve made as an individual. Obviously we grow wiser each day, however, being able to look back and read my thoughts encourages me to continue thriving in life.

I read about many things that I had forgotten about. At one point, as I was reading, I even felt disappointment in my thoughts and feelings. Another time I felt sad having to remember hardships I’ve gone through. I even found myself laughing at my funny stories, HA.

But what I loved most was that it was REAL! It was the unedited inside view to myself. It was the things that I probably wouldn’t say out loud, or the things that simply help me clear my mind, or the much needed venting session.

So here I am blogging…sharing bits of pieces of me and the things I love to do. And yup years from now I will still be able to go back and read through my blog and feel all these feelings all over again. I’m sure I’ll see improvements in my thoughts, I’m sure I’ll probably feel embarrassed about something I post, oh and I’m sure I’ll find typos and I’m sure I’ll pick up a new craft and improve on my current craft techniques. And even if no one reads my blog posts…I will still be content because I’m doing the things I love to do. Yay!
