The best journals aren’t for the reader. They are for the writer. To slow the mind down. To wage peace with oneself.

The gift of free will is that in this life we can choose to be good or we can choose to be bad. We can choose what standards to hold ourselves to and what we will regard as important, honorable, and admirable. The choices we make in that regard determine whether we will experience peace or not.

It may take some hard work.But the more you say no to the things that don’t matter, the more you can say yes to the things that do.
