Four days after she died, I bought Journalution along with Beth Jacobs’ Writing for Emotional Balance. I had started journaling in my early twenties, but fell out of the habit after I reentered the workforce in 2002. That was also the year my father-in-law suffered a massive stroke. So much happened during then and now that it was hard to sit down and think about what was going on for any length of time. Many good things have happened as well, which I also missed writing down. The latter I regret very much.

Both of my husband’s parents are gone now, and it’s such a strange feeling. In many ways, I was closer to them than I was to my own parents. They did so many nice things for me and my boys. I’ll be journaling a lot over the next year in order to capture those memories and to sort out some unresolved conflicts in several aspects of my life.

Quote from Journalution

Many great thinkers, artists, and intellectuals keep journals. It is a process of self-discovery unlike any other.

Journals are a great way to capture memories and emotions. They are also a great tool for achieving the goals in your life. The guides I mentioned above help you draw out and work through the emotions, both the positive and the negative, so that you can grow as a person. I’ll write a full review of them once I’m finished. In the meantime, I wanted to let you know of their existence.

If you grew up reading horror novels and watching horror movies, you may think that writing a spooky scene with a ghost is easy. Just stick your hero and/or heroine inside a haunted house, maybe add a few friends to add a little more excitement and drama, and have the ghost write “boo” on the bathroom mirror while one of your characters is brushing her teeth. Sounds simple enough, doesn’t it? Hollywood makes you think so.

The best ghost stories I’ve read and watched involved ghosts that came alive as though they were living and breathing characters. They had personality. Even more important, they had their own story to tell.
