I love the way you tell this story. Checking the sign to see if it’s okay to bring a foreign object in the pool, then tanning yourselves later. What fun!

This book is becoming an appendage for some of us! I still have not put mine in water, I am worried about mold (and other things.) LOL You GO!!!!

I just love journeying with you and your journal. Swimming and sunbathing, what great fun for creative companions.

“Thinking, anticipating, fretting, and plotting about something that stretches me is usually a lot scarier than actually just doing it.” I so relate to that. I’m going to print it up and glue it in my journal to remind me of your wisdom!

I am really hoping that I never randomly stumble upon the page that requires me to take my journal into the shower. While I am all in favor of wrecking the journal, I recently noticed that my family and friends have been secretly participating and documenting their journey in my journal. For instance, I just noticed today that my mom drew little pictures in my journal. The same ones that she would draw on my napkins and place in my lunchbox before school. This is too precious to destroy. I can’t reclaim those napkins from childhood but I want to preserve the re-creation in my journal. I need to institute a new rule for my journal…NO SHOWER TIME!!! STAY DIRTY!!!

I think the biggest thing I am learning is that I really do have a fear of wrecking anything!
But I am trying to let go – finally took it in the shower today – and it is drying outside!
Loved your video and sharing.
Thanks

Wow! What an inspirational post
I’m a person who likes to keep to the norm, not do anything outrageous, not stand out. This journal wrecking is opening up new doors. When I read a page I want to just go for it and do it, not thinking (too much) about what people think… and it feels so satisfying and liberating. Seriously… I am so surprised by that. I honestly didnt think a book could do that:-)

Who would have thought that a few odd prompts in a book could teach us sooo much? I have learnt loads and I am also learning to love the random changes that happen to artwork through the powers of destruction…
