Remember how Anne Frank didn’t miss a day to write in her diary which she named, Kitty? Anne wasn’t just scribbling dates and events — she was writing about her hopes, dreams, feelings and fears — like painting her world with words on paper. During the most difficult phase of her life, Anne found solace in her journal which became a way for her to stay connected to herself and it gave the world a glimpse into her immensely powerful resilience. In today’s world, where everyone is constantly scrolling the screens — journaling has become a sweet escape and a digital detox. Surprising, right? The old-school practice of picking up a pen and writing your thoughts in a diary has made a major comeback.
