It was hard writing this book, but I’m so glad I did. I’ve journaled for many years to help 'sort myself out'. I rarely share my journaling with others, since my thoughts and feelings are very private to me. The 'Tough Times' I chose to write/journal about in this book were my experiences from 2015 to the Present – with the Political Turmoil, the Pandemic, and now with the Economy. I didn’t realize I had so much in me, bottled up, over recent events – until I started writing. I am sharing 'My Story' now, as an example of how I journal. In reading my book, you will get:A Brief Overview of Journaling, especially how I do it;'My Story' including My Personal 'Advice to Self’s' to get myself Through (and Out Of) Tough Times;250 Writing Prompts to get you going on your Journaling;Internet Search String Examples for you to find your own Writing Prompts related to your specific 'Tough Times', e.g. sickness, loss, worry, loneliness, etc.;Encouragement all the way along for you as you journal to get better and stay better. You might find, like I did, that if you 'fix the insides', the 'outsides' get better all on their own.I was going to title my book 'What Just Happened? Is Happening Now, and Is Probably Going to Happen Again.' – But that was just way too long. I like the title 'How to Journal Through Tough Times' better. What do you think? I hope you find my book useful. If not, I sincerely wish you find what you’re looking for.
