If you have your Journal and/or Diary ready to take notes for today, please pull it out along with your ink pen.
Journal Notes
for
Your Diary
As you can see from the Journal/Diary above, the words are written for you to reflect upon, "Keep calm and carry on."
The first thing that all Diary Writers learn how to do when writing in their Diaries on a daily basis ~ is how to keep calm.
You learn how to keep calm because as you continue to write on a daily basis and later reflect on the words you have written, you'll quickly discover that many of the items, situations or circumstances that you have written about have long since been taken care of or have miraculously dissipated.
When you remember that worry serves no purpose, anxiety solves nothing, nervousness only helps to upset your equilibrium, and most all of the unease that you have ever had has been nothing more than wasted energy, then you understand that the key to really getting things accomplished lies in your ability to keep calm.
Words to place in your Diary
It is when you have learned to keep calm and relax is when you will uncover your true self. Uncovering your true self is only scary if you are a horrible person with a dark heart. Surely that is not who you are ~ right?
If you look at the world and all of its horrors and ills, you will find much to be disgusted about. The evil in our world can only persist when all of the good people decide to stand by, say nothing, and do nothing about it.
In these days that we are living in, it is about morality, character, and integrity. It is very easy to tell who has it, and who doesn't. Would you do anything that a five-year-old would be horrified about? Are you an embarrassment to your children? Can the youth in your neighborhood look up to you?
In this day and age of transparency ~ which can be a good thing ~ understand that it can also be a bad thing. No one needs to know every move you make in life on the tweety bird site or the in your face site, and no one cares about your romantic relationship but you and the person you are involved with...or at least, that is the way it should be. Frankly, no one needs to know all of your personal business ~ people have enough personal business of their own. Have you ever heard of TMI?
You'll find a lot of narcissistic people in this world, as well as mentally ill individuals who have not quite yet figured out that they have a mental illness. (One particular person comes to my mind who is in the news every day ~ but I'd rather not think about it)...
But there is help out there, and if you run across people who need help, please try to point them in the right direction. Whatever you do, don't start acting like them, don't start agreeing with them, and don't make them believe that their behavior is normal or acceptable. And, I am not making light of mental illness. It is a serious issue that should concern everyone. There are people who are on the streets who are mentally ill because they have nowhere to turn, and do not know how to go about getting help. If you feel that you may have a problem in this area, please seek help for yourself. Writing in your Diary on a daily basis is therapeutic, and it will help you to uncover a lot about yourself.
On the other hand, just because you feel that you may be going crazy doesn't mean you are. You may just need a vacation. And you may just need to remove yourself from people, places and things that make you feel this way.
About Social Media
As a mature adult, the least you can do for yourself and those in your life is to be responsible. Don't use vulgar and profane language, and do not put lude and improper images online. And, don't embarrass yourself by doing things that you will live to regret, because you can't take your words and images back once they are out there for the world to see.
If you are not using social media to learn educational and inspirational information, then you should definitely seek to do that.
If you have gifts and talents to share with the world, you may do well with social media by using your gifts and talents to uplift, motivate, inspire, and teach wisdom. Many people will appreciate you for doing so.
But if you are only using social media in a negative fashion, to make a fool of yourself, to bully others, to put lude, violent or disgusting material out there, then please don't use it. You are too old to display indecent behavior, and you are doing a disservice to the promising generation coming behind you.
Personal Diary
Here's the good news ~ some things are best placed in your personal Diary. It is the best place for you to learn about yourself and uncover yourself.
Today, in your Diary, write about the many things that are positive about you. Write about what you like about who you are. Write about your interests. White about your aspirations. Write about the places you'd like to travel to. Write about how you would like to help others. Write about the gifts God has given you that you have not brought to the light of day. Write about what makes you happy. Write about what makes you smile. Write about the person in you that you know needs to come forth.
Diary Writer ~ it is all about "you" in your Diary, so...
