You may not realize it, but it’s incredibly therapeutic to write down your thoughts and feelings. Sometimes you simply need to get something off your chest or you want to record a memory that you don’t ever want to forget. Journals and diaries can be your most trustful friends—you know, besides those fleshy ones you can actually call (or Facebook). You don’t need to justify or explain, you especially never have to worry about it divulging your secrets (unless your little brother gets a hold of it).
Check out this cluster of journals and diaries, you may want to pick up one next time you’re out.
