starting out

I have tried so many ways to keep a diary.I have made entries in journals and notebooks, with dates or blank pages. I always started out with regular entries that became fewer and finally dwindled to empty pages as every day life took over. I've bought beautiful fountain pens to use, or cheap ballpoints. I've tried to carry the journals with me, hoping proximity would encourage me to keep going. I still have some of these books, with their erratic entries, and I love to look back at them. It is interesting to see how much I've changed, and am still the same. I'm hoping that this way will be more fun, more interactive and maybe I'll keep it up!
