My dad had a heart attack at 45. It was scary. Thankfully, it was the warning kind of heart attack… This was a wake-up call for him and a wake-up call for me. Dad began riding an exercise bike, I began cycling.

I understood this was a process. There were benefits to doing what I was doing. Just like I've experienced the benefits of cycling and later hiking. I've also experienced the benefits of something else I've talked about on this podcast, journaling.

Hi, Neighbor. 

To journal or not to journal? Five questions to consider. This is the second of a 5-part series about journaling.

Question Number 2: How Much Time Does Journaling Take? Answer: It actually takes less time than you might think.

We will explore this question through stories about my Dad and son, Jonny, and how they have reacted to traumatic experiences.

Learning from their stories, I incorporated those lessons into my own life. I believe this process will inspire you to journal too. 

Hope and healing are on the way.

Your Neighbor,
