I love documenting my existence

I love filling up my journals, I love talking to myself in public recording my voice and listening to it again months later. I love blogging. Its not something I usually do but its proof to me that time really is moving, even if I cant keep up with it. For my summer homework we analyzed Joan Didion's essay, "On Keeping a Notebook". The central theme was to write down whatever the hell you want to write in your journal because you are its only audience. Make it make sense to you, remember what it was like to be you, no matter how much you may dislike yourself then, because anything you suppress will eventually burst out when you least want to. Its a good, short read. But yeah, if you have to take anything from this, don't forget yourself, give a reminder to your future self to who you were cause we "often forget what we thought we could not". (some shit like that I dont have the essay open xd).
