I found myself feeling really inspired by this apparent journal entry that I stumbled upon on Pinterest this morning:
…And not even because of anything written (although the “note to self” piece is pretty damn good)—but, because of the effort and aesthetic and how… human it is.
And the thought that immediately popped to mind when I saw it was… imagine journaling like this every day of your life…
Imagine the memories you’d have lifetime access to…
Imagine the feelings you’d be able to not only process faster, but get to revisit and reflect on…
Imagine the legacy of life you’d get to leave behind for those who come after…
The reality is… eventually… all of our memories will fade to black.
And only the ripples of our actions will survive.
A journal not only helps us understand our ripples by helping us understand ourselves (so we can deliberately create better or more aligned ripples)… but it leaves behind a small light for other people to find…
…A light into the mind, memories, and inner workings of a fellow life traveler.
…Where there otherwise would’ve only been black.
