There are so many psychological benefits to having a written record of your thoughts and the events of life at a particular time. I’ve always enjoyed going through my past writings.

I’ve done both computer and paper journals, and enjoyed them equally. They are both unique, and can be more effective/enjoyable in different seasons of life.

I’ve thought about putting my book reviews back up; I’m glad you liked them. I might do it again; I really enjoy it.

By the way, I’ve missed you(or your blogging, I should say, since I don’t know you in real life) so much and am thrilled to hear of the glorious things God is doing in you life. I’m praying that you feel better soon and that the pregnancy is an easy one.

Do you think you might put any sort of a book list back up? I loved your recommendations, particularly for novels. They were so helpful.

You read my post on journaling, so there’s not much more to say. Although I would like my next journal to be unlined so I can also use it as a sketchbook. As an artist, I’d just like to combine them into one: sketches/writing. But unlike the way artistic types are often portrayed (unorganized, scattered) I’m so type A I’ve kept them separate because it seemed too disorganized to put them together. But like you, I’m thinking to allow myself a bit more freedom in that area.
