Time marches on. You can rant at it, try to hold back the clock,
till it makes a monkey out of you or you can flip it the bird and go about your business.
Eventually, it all come to nil anyway. No one has ever come out a winner against father time.
With reference to TIME....wow, it has been five great years since AOL started journal land. It has been a wonderful ride and I have met such great people along the way. People who have shared their lives, their wants & needs...baring their souls for all to see. I have stood and cheered their triumphs, especially when they overcome terrible odds, and have cried many a tear at the thought of their pain & anguish. Even though some of the memories are painful, I still am glad that I had a chance to meet these wonderful people and that they thought enough of all of us to share their lives with us.
When I was a young girl I used to write in an old notebook making it sort of a journal, little did I know that I would be doing the same so many years later. I never saved the old journals, but my Mom saved my poetry that I had written when I was a teenager...some of it is posted in my poetry journal.
I've always felt that the written word is man's greatest creation, nothing else compares to it. All learning comes from it, new growth emanates from it.
Happy Anniversary J Land....

I didn't keep a journal but I did fill diaries full of silly teenage girl nonsense. I don't have a clue what happened to them. I also had several pen pals. And some of those old letters are still in a box somewhere. I consider my JLand friends as my elctronic pen pals. It's the same concept when you think about it. Happy 5th anniversary JLand and thanks to you and my other electronic pals for making it a special place. Linda in WA
I had attempted for years to keep a diary or journal in one form or another only to throw it away after only a few entries. It's still amazing to me after a year and a half I'm still writing in my AOL journal. This was a wonderful tribute to J-land hon. (Hugs)Indigo
