Day 30: Parents

For day 30, let's write about our parents. You could:

-describe the ways in which you are similar to and different from each of them

-write about their best qualities

-interview them about their childhood experiences

-write about how the world has changed in their lifetimes

-record your favorite things to do with your parents

-tell about obstacles they have overcome in their lives

I am fortunate to have great parents who love and support me, and I recognize that this is not the case for everyone. If this is a difficult topic for you, feel free to write about your pet or your best friend or someone else who has been a supportive figure in your life. But you might find some catharsis in writing about your difficult experiences and complex emotions. Journals don't always have to be about the good stuff.
