A Blissful Lady's Journal

Summary:

Alice started a journal as an activity with Blissful Lady's Book Club. She kept this journal every day for years, documenting the repetitive details of her life; her son growing up, her husband growing distant, and a darkness building inside of her.

Journals are living,

Joyful or grieving.

A poem, a story, a lyric, a show…

Love poured on paper for the future to know.

-Alice Birdie Beineke

 

The Blissful Lady’s Book Club never fails to inspire me. Our latest activity was decorating these adorable notebooks while Marjorie read a chapter of Sense and Sensibility. We all agreed to write at least a few lines each day this year so we can all look back on our writings by the end. 

I already have a habit of writing on scattered papers and cards, so I have a feeling that this journaling thing will last far longer than a year!
