Journal Writing Topics
Journaling: An Expanded
Definition
by Jill
Schoenberg
Jan 29, 2008 -- Time and
again I am surprised by the limited descriptions I
get when I ask someone to think
about the word journaling.
Usually the response consists of descriptors such as
writing, blank paper, pen, and solitary (or
secretive) writing.
What is sooooooooo thrilling is
that journaling can go beyond writing, way beyond in fact.
I would like to expand the
definition of journaling to include ideas such as:
- Visual journaling
- Creative journals
- Scrapbooking
- Memoir journals
- Spiritual journaling
- Art journals
- Journaling for Fun
- Mixed media journals (writing, drawing, photos, scrapbook
supplies...)
I love helping people
understand that journals are
a personal expression of ourselves and should be as unique and
individual as each of us.
Do yourself, your kids, your family and friends a
favor and take a moment to expand your definition of journaling.
Most of all, make your journaling keeping fun,
creative and fulfilling by making your journal a
creative expression of YOU!
In other words, there is not a "right" way
to keep a journal. There is just journaling, and YOU get to
decided what it means to you and how you want to express your beautiful
and amazing self.
Happy journal keeping...
