Journaling

I'm not a journal writer. Usually. But I read an article online about how in the future, pandemic journals would be of interest to historians. That it would give them an idea what life was like in the middle of this mess.

Point taken!

So I went looking for a proper journal. With all my notebooks, I had to have something that would work. Yeah. I couldn't find anything I really wanted to use. I started looking online and realized that was major stupid. I finally had a brown hardcover journal book that would work, complete with pen loop. Okay, here we go.

The reason why I don't journal is that I usually have nothing to talk about and this time wasn't any different, but the article I read said even ordinary, every day stuff would be of interest. That's what I'm writing about. Ordinary, boring days.

I'm also journaling out my fears. I have a lot of anxiety around this.

I try to think of the ordinary things that someone from the future might want to know, although it's hard to guess what someone 100 years from now might care about.

Probably I'm doing this wrong. Probably I should just journal about what is interesting to me, but like I said, I'm not very good at this kind of thing and so it's easier to write to someone in the future than it is to write this for myself.
