364 Days

Today marks 365 days of writing continuously in my journal at the end of the day. I'm sure that there are many of you out there who have attempted the same feat and most likely failed, but I'm sure there are also the many of you who have done the same thing.
I always thought that I would feel extremely accomplished by achieving what many would find as a huge milestone, but I don't. Not right now anyways. I look at my journal right now and see the entire last year of my life summarized into a small book. (2 books actually, a mickey mouse journal, and a small leatherish book.)  I only wish I could have gone into more detail on certain events in my past year that occurred.  I have missed so much of what I experienced.
But for the moments I've missed, I have also recorded some pretty fantastic experiences also. I will never forget somethings, but for the ones I will, I have my journal. Hopefully it's enough.

I have in these past 2 weeks considered not writing in my journal today for various reasons.

1- Better people than I have tried and failed
2- To spite everyone who told me I should do it (I'm a jerk sometimes, I understand that.)
3- I don't want to make it look like I'm perfect (though I am :D  )
4- I... Don't know why else. I just didn't want to.

I'm not going to tell you whether I do write in my journal or not. Use your imagination. :)
