The new has begun...

The old is gone and the new has come...

This journal is the container of my hopes, fears, dreams, disappointment, lessons learnt, prayers, yada, yada between 18th Feb '06 and 06th May '07. Not bad that i managed to fill it up in just over a year. (Does taking down a couple of sermon notes, writing reminders in the last couple pages, and tearing a couple sheets to write notes to friends count as cheating?!)



I am starting on this new journal! Anju gifted me this one. It is the 'Coffee bean book'!! It has some '32 exotic coffee receipes'. It looks real cool and fun. I have been waiting to start on this since the day Anju gave it. But i wouldn't till i finished the old one. How exciting!!!

I loved writing in my journals but now I do it all on my computer...which is too bad really, because there is something so satisfying about putting pen to paper in a new book.

I agree. I was thinking about the fleeting nature of technology. If there is a server crash or some sort of crash, *poof* all is gone. That is not so with paper.

Also, i guess it is the tangible nature of pen and paper that makes all the difference. Also, one's handwriting makes it more personal.

Maybe it is a good time to start now!

I agree with you guys. I (almost) prefer the journal section at Borders to a candy store.

Two hands - Now that is a difficult choice... I would be torn in two...

Ninja - He he. I really don't know how long ago. At least a few months but less than a year. Definitely before Christmas. Have you ever heard of delaying gratification? :P
