Words that bless

I watched as the flames devoured every word, every page and every inch of my pink journal.

Seeing it turn into ash felt liberating.

Thank God, I was finally free.

I have loved writing in journals all my life.

It felt good to have some form of release, a way to make sense of my thoughts and emotions.

And although it seemed right to record everything I thought and felt, I realized I was doing it wrong all along.

Words are powerful.

Very powerful.

Writing about your past and your imagined future does not serve you.

When you put all your negativity, pain and bitterness into words, you are only creating even more of it.

If there’s one thing I learned for sure, it is this:

If I’m going to put anything into words, it will always begin with THANK YOU.

If I’m writing about my life, I will only tell the story of the wonderful life that I want to create. And thank God for it.

I consider each entry as my prayer to Him. I thank Him for all the blessings He gives me and the blessings He has yet to give.

I’m still amazed how everything I write becomes my reality.

I’m still using a pink journal but I now write words that bless me.

How do you write?
