Start a new journal.

I did start the new journal at last. I have filled several pages. I am not used to writing in a paper journal anymore. I will need to practice.

Finally got the start I needed. I was hoping to capture the right inspiring moment to get me started, but settled for seizing a moment of available time instead. Whatever works I guess! Important thing is I’ve started and now I need to keep going!

I started a new notebook and I have decided it will be made up of lists. Not to-do lists or grocery lists, but lists about me. The first list is titled “Things That Make Me Happy.” So far there are over 60 things on this list. I think I will actually learn more from this kind of journal, than from a traditional diary-type of journal.

I discovered an excellent place for writing -at work. I spend the first three hours of my day alone, opening the store with lots of spare time that I normally just spend being bored out of my mind.

...I suppose I can mark this one as done now.

Bought the new journal today, but all I’ve written in it thus far is my name on the inside of the front cover…

I’ve managed over the last few years of traveling debacles to lose all but one of my journals. Then something terrible happened and I physically quit writing for nearly a year, but the last journal is almost full. For so long I have measured my life from one full notebook to the next, and I feel like I have lost myself by not keeping up.
