To my favorite

Hi, I just joined. This thread stuck out to me because Journalling has become a big part of my life and I thought i could share my experience. Perhaps it would be useful to someone.

I went through a breakup and had to stop myself from reaching out to my ex, I created an email for them named "to my favorite " and would send a mail anytime I needed to speak to him. There were sad emails at first, some were mean, some were sweet. I continued this for 2 years. After a while, the person I was speaking too took on a new form. And now it feels as if I am writing to myself. It's been a nice transition. I rarely read them back but once I start writing I do feel the weight of what's on my mind in that Moment become lighter. It's also great to see how far I have come in terms of understanding my own feelings and emotions. There's a beauty in Journaling and I hope everyone can discover it however they feel is right.

Thanks for listening.
