SKYWRITING {{journal}}

The other day, while shopping with Nicole ((for no other reason then to just get out of the house for some quiet time)) I came across a neat journal: SKYWRITING journal! It is filled with pages of different skys: sunsets, sunrises, cloudy, blue as can be, lighting storms!! In a sense of the title...writing in the sky! lol

I always find it hard to START things such as writing in a journal! Between deciding how I want to go about recording the date, page, what I want to use to write...blah blah ((yes I tend to overthink things like this)) so in return, I struggle with getting started!

As Nicole and I went to get chinese a few hours after shopping, I was talking about the Journal and how I was going to write about our trip to the Canary Islands ((it was behing the inspirtation to get the journal, when I opened it, I happened upon a page with palm trees and my first time seeing a palm tree was on that trip)) and she asked if it was going to be a scrapbook//journal - TADA!! It smacked me...that is EXACTLY what I want it to be! Since it has no lines for words, then I can put words, doodles, pictures...ANYWHERE I wanted!

So, I started yesterday and I really liked how it turned out! Messy...no rhyme or reason or thought behind it...and it felt great! Wrote some of the things that I REALLY don't want to forget about my trip and just had fun putting it on paper!

Todays post was geared around some quotes I've read and REALLY loved and didn't want to forget and the love for my family! My thoughts have been FULL of how I put my entire body//soul into everything my family wants and needs and I just felt it approperate to put it on paper with my favorite family photo!! Who knows...maybe i'll do another one later!

So, overall...I love the whole idea behind the journal and I think everyone in the entire world should own one! :) Maybe I'll work to that one day...seems like a silly thing to work for...but how cool would it be to look at others creativity or lack there of...as they record what's on their mind or what's important to them in that moment?! ...I like the idea! :)

That's it for now! I know, this post has no real reason for being here...other then...well I wanted to post! haha!!

((oh and here is the journal...cute huh?))
