Everyone has a story. Your experiences, your feelings, ideas, thoughts, and dreams all combine to form your life and your journey, which is your story. A great way to keep a relative reflection of all those things that have happened in your life is to keep a journal. A daily journal, a weekly journal, a month end summary journal, any or all these are ways you can keep track and record your experiences, your story.

Your story, your journal is all about whatever, whomever, however, whenever you want it to be about. YOUR journal can contain a word a day, a paragraph, or pages. You can write in YOUR journal every day, or you can write every week or every month. (Recently did not journal for two months.) Some people have not journaled for years and then started again, when the time was right for them. Remember it is your journal, you choose when to write and when not to write.

YOUR journal contains whatever you want to write about The beauty of the sunset you saw tonite, your concerns and hopes for your children, the joy and inspiration of the new art exhibit you just saw, your fear and excitement about what is happening in a relationship, how happy you are with your new assignment at work.

Writing about whatever IS important to you right then and there is journaling. There can be a theme to your journal, or not. I have written about soup, the weather, my self, my friends, and my dreams for the future. A journal, which is the same as a diary, is a place where you choose to store what is important to you.

The start of your journal can be any day of any year. The day you feel you want to start recording your experiences and thoughts is the perfect day to start journaling. It can be January 1, August 19, or today. There is no set time of year to begin a journal or to start to journal again. Some people like the idea of starting their journaling on January 1 .

They write their goals and ideas at the beginning of the year. Others like the idea of starting the very day it occurs to them that they want to write about their lives in a journal. Whatever you choose, it is the right way for you, and that is all that matters.

What you want to journal in is up to you. You may get a notebook, plain paper, or a blank book. You decide. What you want to write with, a pen or a pencil, is also up to you. I journal with a favorite pen that makes my writing easier for me because it "glides" across the paper.

You can also record your journal on tape, video, or the computer. Writing letters can be another form of ournaling your experiences. Another way to journal is to write daily on a calendar.

Remembering to take vitamins is hard for me to do everyday. Unless I set them somewhere that I will see them, I can easily forget to take them. The same is true for my journaling.
