Journaling Tips Funny FaceAre we at the fun part? Are we having fun yet? Quite often we get very serious in our journal. Solving problems, processing new or recurring or never-ending childhood issues, continuing to figure out who we really are. Doing a lot of ‘whying’ to our self. Searching, searching, and searching. Working, working, working.

What about taking a break and going out on a real date with your Journal? Go to the movies, a playground (and ride the swings and climb the jungle gym), take a boat ride. If you’re landlocked, hop a bus, take a subway trip. Last week I posed this question, on our Facebook page, ”What’s the most fun time you’ve ever had with your Journal?” I received an interesting response from Sue Branson Rawlings: “Sitting outside Costco watching people and writing about them...Now that's a real study in the humanities”.

Come on.  I know you can share some wild and crazy times you’ve had with your Journal ‘out in the real world.’ Have a discussion with your Journal and see where he/she wants to go. Any and all ideas welcome here. There’s plenty of room for comments.
