@healthytoday Thank you for your thoughts! I have all my journals, written over 50+ years now. And beyond that, there are the sheets and pages that turn up almost everywhere ;)) I have no children to leave anything to. The poetry I think I would like to pass on, or that is my idea today. That will take dedicated effort just to gather, as they are heather-and-yon, interspersed in journals, on memory sticks, on hard drives.

@healthytoday While your gathering your poetry and journals maybe consider self publishing for others to enjoy.

When you look at the arts (journeying), and see it as a tool to help you relieve anxiety and gain psychological insight, then the poem, drawing is just the tool used. It doesn't need to be saved. The process of doing the activity is the value. The finished product isn't that big a deal unless it feeds others with your language of spirit. But the main point, tis your process. I think that is what my art and writing is all about.
