Journaling is like having a conversation with yourself or someone else in the future. “What did you do today?" They’ll ask. “How do you feel?"
I’ll enjoy looking back on today. I wonder what I’ll think.
Reviewing your past is the only way to learn for the future. Maybe you should look at yourself from a different perspective and cut through the crap. A lot of it is crap. Maybe some of it is the burger I ate today and made me feel oily and grumpy. Or maybe it’s because I’m stressed by something else, not John or Jane Doe.
