My mom didn't journal, but I would love to have some of the letters exchanged between Mom and her sisters, especially Alice, who, I think, was the most prolific of Mom's siblings at writing letters. <br /><br />Mom did have a journal-type book. The red and white polka-dot fabric of the cover is holding its own. On lined pages inside, Mom left quotations and favourite poems, clippings about the anniversary of friends or family, and so, but it's the words written in her own hand and an original thought here and there that I loved. I wish there were more.<br /><br />Who knows, when I'm gone, if anyone will dote on my words or even make sense of them, but I don't plan to "burn the when I'm gone." That will be for someone else to decide. <br /><br />Thanks for your comment, Maureen.

I...I don't know if I have a best time or place. I write when I'm on the road, when I don't fall asleep, and almost any time of day when the moods strikes. In the evening, I grab my day book and jot down the basics of what I, or the hubby and I, have been doing that day. Lately I've started morning pages a la "The Artist's Way" by Julie Cameron. My journalling may shift to the present notebook and be transformed into being my journal.<br /><br />Sorry, I don't have a simple, definitive answer to your question, but I think the morning pages could add a new dimension to my thinking and writing.

We found a box of old letters written to my Mom from her sister in the early '40's. Mom was a student nurse, her sister attending Normal School. Some letters ended "burn this soon!" They were precious to read, an awesome glimpse of a girl's life in Saskatchewan during WW11. Makes me wonder what I am leaving behind as my journal has more gaps than it should. And with most notes and letters now on line we just might have little recorded to share in the future.maureen fiebichnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-6962567736544549202017-06-13T09:53:20.800-07:002017-06-13T09:53:20.800-07:00Good stuff, Sharon.

I should get back in the habit again.<br />Pam M.fudge4everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16295705620837466292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-68369096881381621682017-06-11T19:28:41.999-07:002017-06-11T19:28:41.999-07:00Thanks, Vickie, Tracy and Ruth, for your comments ...Thanks, Vickie, Tracy and Ruth, for your comments on my "rambling."
