A journal can help answer this question. It is a personal thing…a tool like anything else. It’s a safe place where we go to reflect, hope, define ourselves and our values.

It’s where we note the days passing. It’s just human nature, but Its power can be enormous. Throughout the centuries, many have used journals to reflect and focus their journeys.

In fact, can I suggest something? You’re probably already doing it; on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Tik Tok.

If you are a Facebooker, you are probably familiar with the storylines that Facebook occasionally presents, highlighting your online life. Facebook’s algorithm identifies what you focused on in the last year; who you spent time with, your opinions and conversations, the major events and the little ones.

As the images pass by, you can see the connections between who you were then, who you are now, and all the threads in between. It’s a reality check, isn’t it?

In this program, we will look at the ways that journaling can reflect our future as well as our past.
