I have some really good friends - some of whom are published writers - who just don't consider a journal a tool. They (shock! horror!) don't have blank books all throughout their lives... what would that feel like I wonder?
"So some of us are turned on by journals and some of us aren't."
I wonder what difference it actually makes to be writing a journal. I can't contemplate what life would be like without my blank books. So apart from the obvious addiction solution ... what does a journal really bring to your life?

journaling/blogging for me is a way to be able to express myself without the worries of others criticizing me. I really don't know how to talk to people that well face to face, but I can express myself so much better with the written word.
Yeah you are so right Liz ... Isn't it strange how public a blog is, yet it's liberating at the same time? Thanks for helping me work this eternal question out!
I think that there are as many answers as people!
Gandhi said 'whatever you do may seem insignificant, but it's very important that you do it' you & Liz may not have thought these posts were 'insignificant' but finding them has some importance to me, (will be writing about it)
: > for whatever that is worth!
So true anji ... I think the one common theme is that most people I am meeting love thier blank books or blogs!!!
Hey thanks for that alyceclover ... isn't it great when a few words on a blog you 'discover' has a positive input in to your day? I think this is one of the great things about blogging ... and I am sure it actually keeps the world a smaller place ... will pop over to your blog soon!
