Do u think it's good to keep diary everyday? Writing diaries is actually one of my hobbies. I'm a EXTREME sensitive girl, the most sensitive one u can ever imagine. I always get trapped in simple little things that I couldn't get over it. Writing diary is the best way I can think of to handle such situation. I put all my feelings in it, happiness, sadness, past memories,etc. Every night I made myself a hot drink and sat infont my portable table,(sometimes with soft music, too.)and started to write. And this has already become part of my life. Some friends of mine think of this a negative way to face this world, what do u think?

its a good way to express your feelings. as they say..if you cant speak it up..you can express it through writings...it is not a negative way of facing the world.
it is also a good thing when after some time...you bring those diaries out and read them. try it..and you will know what am telling...

I do keep a diary and i is where I vent out my feelings. It's a good outlet for me beause I always feel renewed after writing.

I think it is good to keep a journal. Helps you remember what has happened in your life or stay on the right track.

Keeping a journal can be very therapeutic. It is helpful to be able to write your thoughts down on paper. Even better if you can go back and look at them months or years later and see how you've changed.
It also could be a sign that you are a writer. I mean more than just writing diaries. You have a passion for writing and you may want to try writing stories. The key to writing stories is "you write what you know". Past experiences are good fodder for fictional material. You also sound like you could be writing poetry. Do you have the desire to go further with your writing? If you don't, that's okay. You write for yourself, and that's okay too. Writers tend to be loners so as long as you are happy with that, there is nothing wrong with it. Just don't cut yourself off completely from the rest of the world. There's a lot more to experience.... and to write about.
Good luck!

I dont think it's not a negative way of facing the world. You are putting your thoughts and feelings into words. You are learning to express yourself and it can be very productive. You will learn things about yourself and gain insight into your own mind. You have said you are very sensitive. You know this because of your self knowledge and understanding that comes from writing about things.
Now you have joined myLot you can develop your diary writing into a more public way of sharing your thoughts.

I think that it is a very very good idea to write a personal diary every night. There are somethings that a person can share with no one, not even your best friends but you can share those things with your diary. It is a very very good habit of yours and I encourage it.
