How are you coming with that resolution to write more in your journal? We’re heading into the second full week of the New Year, so I hope you’re still writing. And don’t panic if you’ve missed a day. Just pick it up again next time that you can, and keep going from there. Your “resolution” is really a “goal,” and those can’t be “broken,” just postponed a little bit.
Starting a new journal? Here are some ideas for themes:
- Things you learn each day
- Things you wish you had learned earlier
- Consumerism-what did you buy today?
And here are some prompts for the week if you need them:
- What connection do you feel to the natural world?
- Choose an appliance or machine that you use regularly. What would your life be like without it?
- Where do you like to go for peace and quiet? How often do you get to do that?
- What is your favorite plant? Why do you like it?
- How have you changed in the past ten years? The past twenty?
- Where do you see yourself ten years from now?
- What is your favorite day of the week? Why do you choose that one?
