Today Elder Eyring spoke about keeping a journal. As a result of a revelation that he needed to write down his experiences for his children, he began keeping a journal. Every day for years he would write at least a few lines before bed. Never missing a day, he wrote about what he was grateful for and how he had seen the Lord’s hand in his life. He talked about how being able to read this journal had benefited his children.
Well, blogging is today’s journaling, right? I know I would love to read my parents’ journals–if they had kept any. I suppose the same would be true of my children. However, it’s more immediately compelling to me to realize that this could really help me. I tend to be a glass half empty kind of person. If I wrote every day about what I am grateful for and the good things people do, I might have a better and happier life. I like blogging & it would be good for me, so why not?
