MY *ENTIRE* JOURNAL COLLECTION!

[@MandaFandaa]

That’s crazy that the journal was as old as him when you met him and that it was made in the state AND city he grew up in! 😳 That’s beyond coincidence.

✨ The Destiny Journal ✨

@@platonicsage1298 that is too true

[@elizabethrivera6996]

Every journal I keep is a HUGE part of my destiny. HUGE. I love playing around with my own fate. And my own journaling journey. ✨📓❤️‍🩹

[@OverallAdventures]

This is VULNERABLE for me - but so are growing pains and making new friends and falling in love...aka all of the best things. Thank you for being here, thank you for watching

[@rebeccastearmer4290]

This is my new comfort video. I have a feeling I will return again and again and again to this vibey comfy video 🥰

[@emilymorlock8226]

@@rebeccastearmer4290 the video like just came out and I’ve watched it three times today! 🙂

[@theoutsider8226]

I find it really interesting how you found the love of your life a bit after you learnt to be content with being single. It shows how you must love and be comfortable with yourself before the (near) perfect relationship!

[@2801km]

It's amazing how journal affects our life tremendously. Like in just 1 book itself, it holds alot of our life from every bits. And you keep on writing and writing and when you realised, you have just finished 1 book so you start a new one and it repeats. So imagine that one day while you were cleaning, you found a box filled with your completed journals and you re-read them and it brings back good and sad memory and how you wish you could turn back time and witness it all over again 🥲 and imagine that one day in the future, someone would create a time machine or what sort and travel to the year that is written in your journal and be able to witness the past, thanks to your writing. I'm currently on my 2nd book so I hope I could continue to write till I can't write anymore. I aim to write and fill my box with all of my completed journals so that in every 5 years, I'd read everything back and see what changes I've made.

[@elizabethgeyer1337]

I just found you! I LOVED this video! I have been journaling since I was about ten...some journals were thrown away because of a breach of trust with my mom...hugely changed the way I expressed myself. I do journal in a similar fashion, so it is really fun to see your process and history! I am 63 now, and keep a notebook for my various projects...it helps to have a notebook-composition books mostly, for each project because then I can find notes more easily. I am a retired special ed teacher, and have always loved chronicling life! So excited to see through fresh eyes...yours! Thank you for this beautiful journaling video that will inspire so many!

[@Zygro98acopalypse]

I wrote “Tina new upload” in my bujo today because I had a lot of stressful tasks to get done and I needed something to look forward to. So glad I’ve got your channel to look forward to again.

[@pontmercyingthroughlife150]

every time i watch one of your videos, i immediately run to my journal before the video is over. you're such a huge inspiration to me and my relationship to my journaling, and it brings me so much joy. thanks for always sending me the spark i need to ignite my creative fire

[@OverallAdventures]

Thank you SO much lovely

[@Amber24426]

I feel like this year I’ve had what sounds like the near-equivalent of your 2014 year… just a lot of darkness and a great deal of struggle in trying to wade through looming amorphous, indiscernable shadows. Of course, I wouldn’t wish this sort of turmoil on anyone, but it brought me comfort to hear you talk about how difficult 2014 was for you- it made me feel like maybe I won’t always be this stuck. It’s also comforting to know that 2014 you was probably around the same age as me currently? Right now I am two years post-undergrad, which has been quite a painful and ongoing adjustment for me, adapting to the world without formal education as my backbone. Anyways, thank you for your transparency in acknowledging the heaviness of certain spans of your life. It is beyond helpful to those like me, searching for something to make sense of experiences which often otherwise feel quite hopelessly futile.

[@myriam6539]

Again, so many things I want to say! I watched your video while eating sweet potato and butternut squash soup with bread I baked and I felt so cozy listening to your voice during a whole hour. This is bittersweet for me, because I believe my journal collection would look like yours if I hadn't threw them all out... For some reasons, I picked up the awful habit to rip out the pages from my journal as I wrote. I unfortunately have 0 journal from before because of this. I kept nothing. I have only been able to keep a journal again this year, and, so far I have 2 journals completed and I'm so proud of myself, but I feel so sad for all the memories I've lost. Anyway, it was really exciting to see your whole journal collection and it just reminds of how important it is to treasure these notebooks! I hope you will post a NaNoWriMo vlog for this year as well! I've really enjoyed watching your previous vlogs and you inspired me to participe for the first time ever in the challenge! You honestly help me with my creativity and I am so thankful for your channel. You have such a beautiful energy and I really hope you are aware of how much you've helped others! Thank you for everything you do!

[@user-sj7uo9fv7d]

yes, as a young person (until i was like 14) i always felt the need for my work to be perfect and have no flaws, i wanted my work to always look like a pinterest board- so i threw it all away. its unfortunate that i lost so much due to that stupid insecurity. but now i have more journals that i have saved and allowed myself to be free and creative in :)

[@btwjournals8384]

I don’t think there are enough words to share my excitement for this video! Your journal collections have been a safe place for me that I often turn to when I feel low and seeing this new one honestly fills me with joy

[@learnlove1848]

I love how I can see the progression of how a person develops cognitively and emotionally in each stage of childhood through adulthood through your journaling journey. From concrete to the slow introduction of grasping the abstract in life. I always loved writing too, but never really fell into the habit/discipline of daily writing until I was in my 30s. Thank you for being so open with your life.

[@MyAbidingJournal]

Your passion for journaling just shines in this video. I think it's so important for people to see the journey to a more creative style and understand that everyone's journey is unique. Thanks for sharing! As a fellow journaler and youtuber, I've really been enjoying your content :)

[@earnestwonder8703]

Ooh an hour of journaling. I’m so ready for the throwback. I recognize a few already

[@kittyquinn004]

The intro is so cozy! 💚 how fascinating that you’ve captured the essence of all your past Tinas and can revisit them in all those journals, like you’re truly visiting old versions of yourself on a page.

[@pameehanson3866]

Not sure why but I dumped several of my journals only to realize that was not a good idea. I can't go back and now I keep them even if I don't finish one. I do mostly art journaling, memory keeping, doodles and junk journaling. They reflect where you have been and where you are going. I love to follow people who do lots of journaling and get inspiration for mine, Thank You

[@eleanork3186]

This was such a wonderful video - I'm 16 and you've just convinced me to begin daily journaling! Thank you so much :)

[@londonjohnson351]

Same!!!

[@centimeters1990]

Speaking as a 31 year old: yes to journaling now! Write down all the feelings and thoughts and things you think are weird or even seem cringey now, because when you're older you'll look back with love on who you were when you wrote it💕

[@itsabelletime]

yes!!!! join the club!!! - a 20 y/o who started around the same age as you

[@mimicoolll0]

i started journals a lot and i have a lot of unfinished ones from when i was younger but i’m committing myself now to being more consistent at 20 (about to turn 21 in three months)

[@marisarodriguez7890]

I love this video so much. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen this video

[@ur_sunshine]

I always thought journaling in a diary had to be traditionally, writing pages after pages and that's why I never keep up with my diaries, but you made me realized that it doesn't necessarily have to be just writing, and that it is really personal!♡

[@cecirimi]

That was amazing. I've journaled on and off through the years I've been on for more than a decade now. I did journal in high school but my mom had a love affair with the garbage and managed to throw away my junk journals, art journals and even art work I had created in high school so I have nothing of that time in my life where I went through so many changes and learned to survive alone. You will leave your kids a great history. Which is what I dream of but it seems like no one around me is interested in journaling. Not even my friends. So I continue on this journey that has seen me through many many bright and dark days. I love that you've managed to bring it all together in one journal. I've done the same. Easier I guess.Thank you for sharing it was inspiring.

[@jejealbert]

Omg what u said about using music! That’s exactly what I did in all my high school journals, I’d have what I call “lyric logs” where I wrote down lyrics that I related to, or loved, and if I was playing a song while writing, I’d write at the top “currently listening to: “ and now when i read back on all my journals, I can see how much my music taste evolved and it’s fun to relisten to songs I wrote down and being taken back to that moment!

[@OverallAdventures]

Love the phrase ‘lyric log’ so beautiful!!

[@meredithwoody2013]

It's so neat to see how your journaling style changed and evolved over all the years

[@ritika15996]

This is perhaps one of my most favourite videos on KZbin, ever! I have had a similar journey with journalling, and this video has taught me so much more about self acceptance and embracing the different chapters of life. Honestly, it made me feel much less lonely in my own journalling practice, because I've felt like needing to write for my mental well-being is a luxury and sometimes perceived as a weakness or indulgence. It's only after therapy that I'm becoming more okay with needing to process things in my own way. So thank you so much for this video, I feel incredibly seen! Lots of ❤️ ☀️

[@Liam-fh2cu]

I’ve been saving this video. I’m having a regroup day today, I’ve had a lot of losses this past week and I’m just about surviving. When I first discovered you years ago, it was wonderful to watch your videos and growth, and this is amazing to be able to place more of your experiences around those times. I feel honoured to have watched you grow into yourself. You ground me.

[@OverallAdventures]

Thank you so much for the kind words, Liam. I'm sorry to hear that you're going through such a dark time of loss. Thinking of you and happy that I can provide a moment of comfort

[@sadieann4244]

[@haliocreativestudio8969]

I just found your channel because it got recommended to me. And I was watching and all of a sudden I hear Qatar... OMG; I LIVE IN QATAR! One important thing I relate to in this video is that focusing too much on aesthetics just gets in my way (i.e. I won't be able to journal everyday). I want to write everyday to connect with myself and thoughts. Thank you for sharing this amazing journey of your journals.

[@kvhowells]

I ❤️ this ! I never counted my journals but I have a couple huge crates of them….started journaling at age 8 …….I have also thrown a away about 10 journals as I felt they were too mundane and not worth keeping sometimes I think about having a big bonfire one day to burn them all to represent letting go of the past ! ……….but I really need the documentation ……especially to remind me of all the boundaries I have had to make with certain people in my family and life .I still journal today…it’s therapy for me ….. I need to take all my journals out like you and display them and do an Instagram photo of them .😃🥰👍🙏😍🤩 📖 📕 📚 I used the artists way technique of journaling ….for a few years …..3 morning pages a day .

[@Roisin3107]

I'm soooo excited to watch this, especially as it's 59 minutes long!!! I'm so happy, like you're so inspiring and you've really been a huge influence in my journals I write for my ptsd and healing, I'm so glad you're posting videos again, you're angel! 💓😊

Tina, thanks for sharing your journaling collection with us! Like you said, it is amazing for journalers to be able to hold their own history in their hands. They are tangible memories that can transport us back in time, and perhaps in the future serve to transport someone else back in time. Yay for journaling!

[@farr_jms7707]

what an amazing video Tina! i also started journaling early but all of my early ones are nowhere to be found or i probably ripped the pages off. i started getting "serious" about it during 9th grade as well and now, in college, it's just a part of me. i love journaling so much. it was fun watching this video and seeing how you grew!!

Thank you for sharing all of this.

You are proof that life does get better and even after going through it, you can still find the light at the end of the tunnel. And its so cool that the evidence of it is through journals!

I’ve kept all of them starting around 2015 though so 🙏 no more impulse purging. I used to journal sporadically but remember finding you and I think you talked about the artists way and I was like oh, stream of consciousness?! And now I’m out here scribbling 10 pages a day and sticking pictures and paints and all the things. You positively changed the way I journal. I also became a teacher!

I tried to journal at various points when I was a kid and teen but it never stuck. Then I started a notes to my future self type notebook when I was in college and whenever I have stuff I want to note I write it down. That began as close to a “regular” journal as I have ever had, although 4 years later I am still only in my second book. Then I got into fountain pens a year and a half ago and look for excuses to write so I have been getting more regular with it.

[@WitchyWidow777]

I absolutely adore that Journal #50 was such a fateful journal!! So cool!!! I am 31 years old, and I've been journaling since i was 15 too!! Sadly, in a fit of emotion, I threw away the journals from my teenage years (I was abused in my childhood, and had a fit of "I DONT WANT ANY OF THIS ANYMORE"), lol. I regret it SO MUCH. But, i do have all the journals from when i met my Husband, all the way up to when He Passed. And now, i write letters in my journal to Him every day. I'm at Journal #60
