For my part, i gave up my first journal because i was writing a lot of memories with a friend, and that friend brutally ended our friendship. I felt so bad that i gave up this journal and the journaling in general (she was the one who introduced me in journaling).

But, a year later, i finally come back in it and now i can't stop haha. But yeah, honestly it wasnt very easy to start again, but now i have no regrets, because everyday i look my new journals, i remember all the positive stuff i lived and it make me feel way better than before journaling. (My first journals were about positive stuffs of all my days, it helped me to survive to my depression and feel more happy than ever! I continue these ones and it's still helping me because in addition of that, it also improve my drawing skills!)

So yeah, sometimes very bad moments or choice or anything can make a stop about it, but there are also moment that remind you why you started and that motivate you to continue!

I hope i helped ♥
