A New Journal

“Isn’t it mysterious to begin a new journal like this? I can run my fingers through the fresh clean pages but I cannot guess what the writing on them will be.” – Maud Hart Lovelace

It’s interesting, I just wrote about how it feels to think up the first few words when you start a novel. Now this quote, this quote is different because now we’re talking about starting fresh on a journal. Starting a new journal is like opening presents on Christmas. You crack that cover open and you get to pour more and more thoughts into the world. It’s way less pressure for me. I don’t do anything special when I journal. What I mean by that is that there aren’t many rules when I journal. No having to stay in the lines. I mean, I try not to ramble too much about things other than writing, but that still leaves me with plenty to journal about.

I just started a fresh journal in June. Do you still use paper journals? Do you journal?

When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
