I have been battling whether I should continue this writing journey or finally close my journal and never look back. The more I fight this battle the more I find reasons to continue and here are some of the reasons I've come up with:

[ ] It brings me happiness
[ ] It's my safe place
[ ] It gets me through a tough day
[ ] It's my way of expressing myself
[ ] To release my emotions
[ ] To leave words behind to be remembered
[ ] To tell my side of the story
[ ] I enjoy recreating experiences through words
[ ] No one writes the way I do
[ ] To help others express their feelings
[ ] People can relate to my writings
[ ] I love rereading my thoughts
[ ] I feel accomplished
[ ] I love writing

I don't know how to turn writing off. I have gone years without thinking about it, not writing and then I find my way back to it. This is what I love simply put! This is who I am. This is all I've ever wanted to do. And I pray I have the will to continue no matter what life throws at me.

Let me know what you think
