Do You Still Keep A Diary? by Sicozone(m): 7:06pm On Jun 04, 2013 |
Some memory are inevitably funny and loving,some are definitely painful and dreary,your present status isn't your previous one,having a record of your daily life is really worth it,Life isn't too short to keep its record. Sometimes when going over this part records,it gives us strength,it makes us smile,it could be a driving force that will say 'move forward',it says get on with that dream and vision of yours,it says 'just a little more step' and that's all you might just need for your breakthrough. But all the same,some memories are bad,some are evil,some are regrettable but do we acknowledge the fact that this same memories gives us reason to thank God even for the past records,It gives us reasons to really work hard and avoid our past mistakes and pitfalls,it shows us our weaknesses and makes us right the wrongs,it gives us the reason to prepare for the future,it gives us the reason to prevent and precaution against impending dangers.Our past mistakes only sums up with the good what we call Life. Our secondly,minutely,hourly,daily,monthly,quarterly,yearly entails define our life. Every moment and day counts,cherish it,remember it,record it,see the rights,right the wrongs,feel the fun,share the pain and move on. A record well kept helps a lot,it helps to know and tell the unseen generation what is actually called LIFE.........So the lesson here is>HAVE A DIARY>>>>>>>If i may ask have you had one,do you still keep one,do you have at all??....let's answer this question and share our experiences..... |

The steps are simple,i hope this helps.....Make sure your diary reflects your personality. Some of the ways people personalize diaries are: adding scraps, like movie ticket stubs, receipts, flower petals, etc. gluing in photographs making sketches and drawings writing poems choosing a quotation or a goal of the day Write in some basic information about yourself on the first page. You could include your name, your age, your best friend, your occupation or school grade, and a few of your hobbies and favorite things. Sometimes people include a "reward if found" note, just in case it gets lost. Start your first entry by labeling the top with the weekday and date, the time, and possibly where you were when writing that entry. Write your entry as if you were talking to your best friend, or even to yourself, with enough detail to remind you what was going on at that time. Remember that things may be different in the future. Don't be afraid to even give your diary a name. Pretend it is a real person, not a non living object. This one day may become your best friend! You can write your frustrations and celebrations, but also write everyday things about your schedule, your friends, and the things you like to do. People forget things they think they will always remember, and these everyday things will be very meaningful to you later. Try to write positive in there too. Being positive can help you in the darkest of times. Start again if you have a break from writing. If you do skip a day, days, or even weeks, don't worry about it. Just start in again from the current day. Obsessively trying to catch up with all your past events is the quickest way to lose interest a diary. If you're still remembering something weeks later that you didn't write about, it will come up again in your mind later and you can write about it then. Don't worry if you skip a day, week, or even a month. No one's keeping score. Read your old entries every so often and see what you think now in comparison to then. But do this when you are in an accepting mood of yourself! It does not help to be mean and judge your former self and then throw away your diary in disgust. Be nice to yourself and treat your old diaries like letters from your former self to your present self. More importantly, see how much you have grown and learned from your experiences. At the end of the day, that is the true beauty of a diary, of your own personal and emotional growth as you strive to better yourself every day. Make sure you hide it too. It's a personal diary so it needs to be safe! A hollow book is a good place to hide a diary. You can also hide your diary in other places like between the mattress and the bed frame, stuck up under a table/ chair, in a video case, in a shoe packet, or in your jacket. |
