Why a public journal?

Several things came together to inspire me to make this journal public...


1) I started doing some serious internal housekeeping after being kicked in the teeth by feelings I'd been burying for years all surfacing at once, and the resulting realization that I was not doing "just fine". 


2) Part of said housekeeping included researching online about many of the issues that had surfaced. During this research I ran across an article that suggested,  "Make a real effort to acknowledge and appreciate something each day that made you genuinely happy." I knew this was something I needed to do! 


3) Then I remembered Motion365, a 365 day blog of a dear friend of mine, and how inspiring I found it to follow her writings. It hit me that a public journal such as hers would help keep oneself accountable to a practice that is so necessary to one's growth.


So, I decided to do this publicly. :)


May every day bring YOU happiness!!
