I use journaling as a way of getting thoughts out of my head. I'm from the generation of letter writing but seems that art is no longer. Now I wish that I had pen pal. I do try and write every day sometimes a list of what I was able to accomplish even with this darn depression and if I can't write that day I just put down " no writing today". Have been doing this for about 10 years but can't muster the courage to go back and read them. Oh well...
