Dear Diary...

I am a writer in case you didn't notice. So of course i have journals. And i have lots of them. For this blog post i wanted to tell you about all of them and maybe give you some ideas for some of your own, along with why having a journal or diary can be cool.

 

So i have a total of 13 journals that i have written in. 6 of those are completely full. I have two that i have not written in yet. And the rest at least halfway full.

 

I first just started journaling about my life. Crushes, and things going on in my family, just life. I started that first one in 2011 and I am currently on my 7th one of those types of journals. I love looking back at these journals and being able to see my personal and spiritual growth

 

The second type of journal i have is a travel journal. It's pretty small but that's why it's so great for that.

 

My third type of journal is a prayer journal. I just write little prayers down and it's cool to see a year later how they have been answered.

 

The fourth kind of journal i have is for my future husband. Or it was.. I kind of stopped writing in it as soon as i started because i found it hard to write to someone i didn't know who i was writing to. You might think that is what journaling is but usually i have someone in mind that i am writing too. Even if it's God or maybe for my future children, or maybe even one day a historian.

 

My fifth kind of journal is for my music. Something to write songs and poems in. I just received one that even had spaces to write lyrics on one side and music notes on the other.

 

My last and sixth kind of journal is kind of different. I basically am writing about my life in second person. So almost like i am turning my life into a fictional story. It seems to be my depressing journal because I usually use this when I cant handle my life and need to put everything into perspective.

 

 

Well that's all of them. I hope you enjoyed this post and let me know what unusual kind of journal you have? And if you have more than 13 journals:)
