We all have a longing in our hearts to know we have a purpose – that our life matters. We often look for that purpose in the approval of others, in what we do well and in ways that we can make a difference.
Teaching
Any time you are overwhelmed by a situation, or emotions get triggered, journaling is a great way to get all of those thoughts out of your head so you can process them more clearly. When we allow negative thoughts to swirl around in our heads, a bad experience can feel exponentially worse than it really is. Just the act of writing it all down often helps us put things in a better perspective.
