Believe it or not, on several occasions, I have had the experience of an individual searching my belongings to find my personal journal and posting it online!
Frankly, I was amazed by the number of people who were interested enough to read it!
Blogging serves as a personal journal. Your blog becomes a digital record of your life that is saved online. It can never be lost, stolen, or destroyed.
Blogging is actually much better than a personal journal. When you start writing about your life and the thoughts that shape it, you begin to think more intentionally about who you are, who you are becoming, and whether you like what you see.
Blogging trains you to be observant and facilitates personal growth. It trains you to focus on what is meaningful for you. It trains you to track your life and articulate what you are experiencing.
I highly recommend it!
