Write It Down!
If you don’t, how will you have a better perspective?
I’ve always advocated writing things down. This is a prime example of why I have so many journals to glean from since starting them around 1993, while in my early teens.
Excerpted from my light blue waterlogged Mead journal on June 12, 2008
Sometimes, It’s How Life Works
It’s funny how life works sometimes. One minute you’re down and life seems to be against you, aiming its cannons at you as if there were a bulls-eye on your back (or your face, in my case). Then, the next minute…well, everything doesn’t seem to be all that bad.
Imbalanced chemicals or not, endorphins or not, life just works that way sometimes. It’s almost as if God were saying, “It won’t be long now and the cloud you’re under will move to reveal the sun.” (Much like the poem I wrote in my previous post.)
Putting Things In Perspective
Writing never hurts to put things in perspective, either. For instance, you know how you’ll read a book or an article someone’s written and think, “Hey, that person really knows where I’m coming from”?
Well, if you write things down, when you look back over what you’ve written months or years from now—when you’re feeling much the same as you did when you initially wrote it—you can say, “Hey, that person really gets me.”
Because it was you who wrote it in the first place!
Writing never hurts to put things in perspective.
