Good habits, Bad habits...

Habits are a funny thing - you do them without even thinking. Which makes them either easy to live with or hard to live with. If you have a good habit - going to bed early, exercising, or eating your vegetables - they make you healthier so they are easy to live with. But if you have bad habits - too much sugar, staying up late, smoking - well those can all make you sick so they are hard to live with - right.

Part of the reason I write and I reflect is because I have a curiosity with generations past. And while I don't have an ego that thinks anyone other than my family will be interested in me specifically, I do think as a collective whole my generation may be of interest to the future.

So with that in mind - write today. What are your habits - good and bad? Are there any that may be 'extinct' in the future. For instance Lattes - will we still be drinking Lattes 200 years from now? Maybe - Starbucks certainly hopes so! Do you have to have yours everyday?

Write about it!

Vacation

Well I just ordered over 1000 prints from our most recent vacation. So that naturally leads to todays journal prompt.....what is your most memorable vacation? Why is it so memorable - was it the location, the people you were with, a particular event? Write about it!

Self Reflection Time....

What has been occupying your thoughts this week? What are you thinking about this very moment? Write it down!

The time has come...

Do you ever just get 'caught' up in life. Start to feel sorry for yourself or think why bother - nobody is reading anyway? Well I did! But the time has come to start again!

What new beginnings have you had? It doesn't have to be recent! Have you ever just made a clean break? Maybe you left home for college and started 'fresh'. Or maybe you just decided to change a few things in life. Write about it!

Going Back...

If you could go back in time and meet one person from the past - who would it by and why? Write about it!

Learning to cook...

What food did you learn to cook or prepare first as a child? Write about it!

Sick...

When was the last time you had a cold? It is barely fall and I already have a one. My dd brought it home from school with her and is now sharing it like all perfect school kids do!!! So - when was the last time you were sick? What are you like when you are sick - do you struggle through because no one can do the job you do and you have to be there, or do you seize the opportunity to lay down, sleep a bit longer, and catch up on TV? Write about it!
