My best friend bought me a really special journal for my birthday last year. The title is Words to Live By: A Journal of Wisdom for Someone You Love by Emily and Kate Marshall. The reason that it is special is because it was designed to be a journal that gathers wisdom from others in it's pages. It is meant to be passed to people you care about and then they write their tidbits of wisdom based on a prompt. Some prompts are:
- You will enjoy your work and accomplish much if you...
- I think loving relationships last when...
- In my experience, lasting friendships come from...
- These traditions and rituals have been meaningful or comforing to me...
You can ask people to pick a page they want to fill in or request they fill in a specific page. I plan on asking some of my child's caretakers to write their words of wisdom and then I will have it translated.
When he grows up he will have a book filled with the wisdom of people who have touched him life throughout the years!
PLEASE...if you buy this journal from Amazon - click on my link in the sidebar because I get a % when you link from my page :-) Thank you!!!
