I was doing some reading this morning, during that bit of time I have before I need to get ready for work. I love exploring the journals that are out there. I found a true gem this morning and it was right under my nose all the while!
The journal I am talking about is called THE REST OF THE STORY. It is a journal of one woman's wonderfully personal and poignant writings. From her holding the laundry basket for her mom in one, to her childhood move leaving Tommy in another, if you have a heart at all you will be able to relate to her stories and poems. It will bring a smile to your face and even a tear to your eye in some cases - and then you know that she has struck a chord!
You will note that this author has 3 journals, but this particular one is my favorite. What a treasure!
We are so lucky to access to another person's thoughts, wishes, heartaches and triumphs through journals. It is almost a humbling experience and certainly one in which we can continue to learn from.
Start at the beginning of this journal though! Don't miss out on one single experience. You will be glad that you did.
