397 Journal Writing Prompts & Ideas

Journaling is basically the act of recording your thoughts and feelings by jotting them down on a daily basis. This art has been around for hundreds of years now and has been used by most people as a means to relieve stress and express themselves. One of the most popular journals is that one by Samuel Pepys a naval administrator in the 1600's who made it a point to write down what happened in his lifetime-from his personal feelings to important events that not only affected him but affected the world as well. These events include the Anglo-Dutch War the Restoration of the English Monarchy and even the Great Fire and the Great Plague of London. Now a library in Cambridge is named after him.
