Personal Development Resource

Today I discovered this excellent list of blogs, websites and others that focus on personal development. The list was compiled by Priscilla Palmer. I’ve been dipping in and out of the links on the list just seeing what’s there. I’m sure there’s plenty to keep you going for a long, long time.

Japanese War Journals

I’ve spent some time this afternoon reading this article about Japanese war journals & diaries. The article is a little on the lengthy side, but is definitely worth reading. While reading I felt the article highlighted the need people have for truth. Keeping a journal is an act of truth, in my opinion. According to […]

Journal Writing amidst the Madness

The last few days have been busy ones for me. I haven’t been able to stick with my normal journal writing routines. Most afternoons I try to get my little guy down for a nap, have his dad keep an eye on him, and take to the shops. I can either grab a long black […]

Eni Oken

I was thrilled to read that Eni Oken keeps a journal; more specifically a creative journal for her jewellery design ideas. Now you may not know who Eni Oken is.

Paris Not Writing Prison Diary

Well, according to this news story Paris Hilton is not writing a prison diary, though she is thinking of writing another book. Just in case you were interested. I did mention when the news came out that she was supposed to write a prison diary.

Had to Share This

I’ve pinched this directly off Cyndi at Layers Upon Layers. There’s no way I could just leave it there and not share this terrific journal clasp idea. Nate True invented this and has successfully used his unusual journal clasp for a few years. There are heaps of photos of the clasp in action, also a […]

Looking for Patterns

One of my daughter’s favourite pastimes is looking for patterns in what might seem like random events. She does this in every day life while waiting for things to happen.
