Blogger Week 2:

The concept of destroying ones journal upon completion is fascinating. While some may want to destroy it to protect their personal thoughts, others may want to keep theirs to look back upon in the future and flow through the nostalgia. I feel if I was to have ever kept a journal, the outcome of the journal would greatly have depended on the content inside. If I had kept a journal as a kid sharing all of my most personal thoughts and a feelings, I would have definitely destroyed it. Growing up in a three child family privacy was not always at an abundance, nor would have I trusted anyone in my house to not read it. However, if there was nothing incredibly terrible for my family to read and it did not contain my most deep secrets, I would have kept it just to reminisce. I feel for me, it would have completely depended on the contents. I feel privacy is very important, especially for family. With that being said, if it was a personal journal with my thoughts, I would definitely destroy it before anyone could have a chance to invade my privacy. Your move Mom.
