The Value of Journaling: Why My Notebook Is My Spiritual Companion

I have a question: What is the value of a journal?

For me, the collectible for record keeping is a priceless, prized possession!

Journaling as a Record of Spiritual Growth

Just as smartphones and social media platforms reintroduce me to memories with visual timelines of my past, journals allow me the opportunity to recognize, revisit, reexamine, and reengage with my personal and spiritual development. Inspired by my own handwriting, it provides powerful insights to a plethora of chronological events.

Placing pen upon paper.

A Mirror. A Companion. A Healer.

Effortlessly, a journal (aka notebook) points out the people, places, and things that were once prime concerns. Its mirror of my intimate thoughts highlights whether or not such priorities remain on their pedestal of purpose in my life. Aside from God, a journal also serves as my loyal companion—it provides the space to release, reflect, and reignite silent passions without judgement. Its crisp, lined sheets serve as my tea of therapy from invisible injury, my cheerleader in sweet celebration, and a friendly reminder of faith when faced with fathomed fear.

For this, I am grateful.

My journal is my safe space.
