I call it ‘regrouping’, which is my term for getting in touch with my spirit source. At some points in life many things can and do change and these changes take you away from your self goals, dreams and the route you feel you should be going in life. We are dragged into situations we don’t want to be in, doing things we really don’t want to be doing that leave us wondering, “What am I doing here, now?”. It is at this point that I use a journal to get me back on track to what I feel my life is about and to help me regroup my thoughts and feelings and get ‘back on track’. I’ve found it is the only tool that helps me personally, and it may be a great tool for others. It’s almost akin to using a brush when you are having a bad hair day.
I make time for myself amidst this chaotic realm of doing what others feel I should be up to and sit down with a journal that fits my mood. I have a special journal for my spiritual writing. When I sit and write, I write about where my life has gone, and what I’d like to be doing. I write about things I am grateful for. I write about goals, dreams and outcomes. The entries are very personal and most likely not shared.
Some people take a walk when life gets too hectic. Me, I pull out my spiritual journal.
