A new finding suggests that keeping a journal not only benefits your life and memory, but also could play an important role in how satisfied you are with your relationship.
"You need to be careful to not use your journal as a vent for negative things in your life. But to help you remember things from your past. If its not a positive memory or something you want or need to remember later in your life, you shouldn't log it."
But if you are writing about positive things that happen, especially in your relationship, it will help you be overall happier with it. "Today _____ did the sweetest thing" or "Its so cute when my love _____" Even things like "I was thinking about what would happen if I ever lost him. If only he knew how mush I need him."
A cute idea I found on Pinterest about journal writing- is getting him a journal From you.
You can give it to him as a gift one day, or use it as a keepsake incase he ever lost you.
Im doing it for him for an anniversary present. Here is an entry from mine to give you some ideas:
"Feb 17th 2014
Today when I came home from work and saw you standing in the kitchen in your work clothes, just home yourself and you were doing the dishes for me because I hadn't had time this morning, was the sweetest thing ever. You didn't ask why they weren't done, or complain. You simply did them because you knew I have been so busy and you were trying to relieve some of my work load. You always do more than your part, and I will never be able to tell you how much I love and appreciate you. And I notice all the little things you do in my life."
Look back to your personal journal often and remember the special little moments or the sweet things that he said, or how much you need him in your life. Things won't always be sunshine and rainbows. But when a storm comes its nice to be able to look back on the sunlight and fall in love over and over for the same little reasons.
