Is it really that or is it something else?

I come here almost everyday thinking wow it would be so cool in 30 years to have a journal to look back into our lives. I have so many great thoughts and wisdom going through my head I just have to put it down for the record.

Then reality sets in. I sit here, thinking, that sounded so great an hour ago but typing it out really is boring. Are all my fantastic thoughts really just mundane ramblings going boing a boinga in my head.

And I have journaled for my whole life and a few years ago I started to read what I had written and decided that no, that is not what I would want to be remembered by and had a fire and burned all my journals. It really was liberating, starting over, fresh.

Some things I did learn from reading my old journals is I don't remember things from the past as I had written them down. I really understand about false memories, after reading just a few entries. I just wonder why we remember the things we do and why are some of those memories changed over the years.

I am reading A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle and I find that it is interesting and very calming, a sort of meditation. I don't agree with some of his philosophies on the Christian Religion, however I do understand that we need to decide for ourself what is true and untrue, what is our spirit and what is our ego. For me it is not a fabulous book as everyone says, however it is a comfort book, one that brings your thoughts to the things that really matter in this world. Of course I haven't finished reading so this thought may change.
