The words written in those journals have helped me work through a lot of stuff, and honestly aren't really meant for anyone else to read, and so burning them makes sense to me. Those blank pages served their purpose, and I no longer need them. It's a beautiful moment when you realize you have finally healed, fully. <br /><br />Hope you are well my friend, and all the best to you and your beautiful family in 2017. xoKim https://www.blogger.com/profile/08476209107377395745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501164039766203202.post-92205777583591162552016-12-27T12:40:42.891-05:002016-12-27T12:40:42.891-05:00I hope you had a merry Christmas Kim and wish all ...I hope you had a merry Christmas Kim and wish all the best for you and your little man for 2017!

I love that you used solstice to take the time to do that. It's amazing how going through those steps and watching what you've written burn, can truly feel so freeing. <br /><br />Warmest wishes to you and Reece in the 2017. xoOld Gates Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17685259960106384067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501164039766203202.post-41307276250535630872016-12-24T20:54:08.314-05:002016-12-24T20:54:08.314-05:00Thank you.

I've never thought of doing that even though many of my journals have served their purpose.

We have a tradition of writing down our hopes and aspirations for the year to come and reading those from the year before. It’s interesting to see how things came to be and how things changed. Burning your journal must signal a turning point for you. I cannot imagine that being easy but at the same time I think it would be such a cleansing experience. Many blessings to you and your sweet little (not so little now) man for the year to come. :) ❤ moongirlhttp://www.ofartandotherthings.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6501164039766203202.post-83137474088660576762016-12-22T14:24:05.322-05:002016-12-22T14:24:05.322-05:00So so beautiful!

Now I am trying to accept where I am physically and doing what I CAN do. (I do some yoga as long as it is not spinal twisting...).
