Journaling? More like you're-nailing it!

You know, as I was looking at my blog posts and I was thinking about all the times I have actually used my blog as a journal, many apparently however I also have an actual analog journal. That place has some thoughts that will never see the light of the internet...the sewer of the internet?

Peep my staging of this hahaha

How ever you spin it, I feel that is part of my creative process (who am I kidding lol) and process for myself to get my thoughts out of my head and feel that it is manageable. Journaling is a completely personal relationships that we have with our own words and thoughts, it can be rough, creative, an escape, pretty, and it can be profoundly painful. What is that saying that the pen is mightier than the sword.

My journaling process as of late has been in response to some stressors in my life and getting those feelings validated by myself, and surprisingly it also has some space for some self affirmations, well at least when I try really hard to make that part of the process. It is also part of my actual bullet journal, and this is different than my morning pages blog post. Being part of my bullet journal means that it is always accessible for me to use and it also makes the guise of productivity exactly that, a guise, and them being together helps ground me.
