Historically, a captain's log on a ship was essential for navigating, recording events, maintaining accountability, and serving as legal evidence. Similarly, journaling can help us navigate our lives, track our progress, and find clarity. It's like a spiritual practice that relieves stress by allowing us to let go and trust that everything is documented. Journaling helps us stay accountable, reflect on our journey, and see our growth, making life feel more purposeful and fulfilling.
