And more from "me" ..... I've been journaling for about 15 years .... some of the early ones I would not let anyone see (my sil burned them up for me), they were so dark and lifeless. That led me into writing. I didn't "decide" to write, I just wrote what I felt that day, or what was going on. I've got about 30 now, over a period of about 10 years. I did let my therapist read them, and my closest girlfriend and they both think I should try writing a book. They go from the deep darkness of depression to at least being able to move around. They revolve around all sorts of things. I doubt there will be a book, but it sure was a blessing to me when I was in that dark place.
