What is this WT?

We’ve a steadily growing community—Welcome to our 18 new members since last week, we’re now 483 total!—but participation is growing slower.

My idea is to encourage people in participating more by pushing a weekly theme. It’s an invitation, not a mandatory theme. Feel free to comment about anything else related to journaling, or to start your own thread ;)

This week theme: If by journaling it you could change one thing in the past…

News aren’t that great and I thought it might be an interesting way to reuse a classic sifi theme. So, if by journaling it, writing it or skecthing it down in your journal, you could change any past event, not something global like an election, a war, some castatrophic event, or anything like that but something directly linked to you daily or to the people close to you.

  1. Would you use that power?
  2. What would you change?

    Hi, I’m one of the new subscribers. Thank you for all your work in this community.

    As for your question, I probably wouldn’t use the power, but that’s because I only write things in my journal that I want to remember. For me, the journal is a place full of good and positive memories.

      I tend to write down postives and negatives. Otherwise I feel I get a glam’d up version of my past.

      Blessed (and cursed) with a memory that can remember everything it sees, journaling helps me with my anxiety of waking up and not remembering.

      Wouldn’t you change the past to be able to add even more good stuff?
