I tried fixing the darn profile, but I guess something went beserk on the system, and now it is acting all wierd when I try to add stuff. Funky. For once, I am ACTUALLY gonna do a real entry on this, just like I do my other page. The other page I have, some of the entries are pretty pathetic. Random crap is what I mean. This is still a journal, nonetheless. As I sit here at the computer, in my pj's, at 1:40 in the afternoon on Christmas Eve, I still wonder what to write. Now this is where the journal entry gets cheesy. I go off all random and totally off topic that I had just realized I was able to talk about. Who needs an online journal anyways? Or even a journal, period? Many ask this question, and yet, many have no reply. Sadly, this kid 'genius' sort of does. A journal is where one keeps one's thoughts or feelings at the time. Many writers often keep journals of dreams they had to write a better story. Keeping a journal is quite exciting, once you get into it. Sure, writing a whole entry is boring, but when you look back at it, you are able to remember what you were thinking, or a previous dream, or whatever. Whatever you put in there. I once had a real journal, and decided to get rid of it after rereading it several times, just to remember it all. I had then decided that it totally sucked as a journal, and threw it away. I barely remember what I had put into it in the first place. But what I do remember, I had described more vividly than what I was thinking. You see, that's the key to a good story, the details and the language you use. If one was to write a book, there has to be a starting point, correct? What many famous writers used was their dreams for the fictional books. Then again, not always total fiction. Look at Samuel Clemens, a.k.a. Mark Twain, many of his stories came from dreams. There is a famous saying for accomplishing things: "Where there's a will, there's a way." And it is very true, too. For those who read this, and have never heard of it, or don't have any clue as to what it means, it can be restated. "Once you set your mind to something, nothing can stop you." ...Think about it for a second. I know you have heard the second one. Think of a time where you had set your mind to something, and did great, and before that, you were unsure, but you still wanted to do it. There is an example if you can think of one.
"The heart goes through many things. Many think of it as just things like pain, loss, desperation. But it also goes through love and joy. Don't look at the glass half empty."
