Journaling reads as follows:
To document. To preserve. To share. The reasons I scrap are endless; I could go the selfless route and say I scrap so that my children and my children’s children will feel connected to the ones who came before, or I could go the selfish route and say that I scrap for me, to get rid of stress, to allow my creativity to flow, for quiet time away from the burdens of adult life, for a bit of escapism. The reasons why I scrap are not relevant, as long as I enjoy what I am doing. Which is why I haven’t scrapped in months, it became a burden, something I HAD to do, and not something I WANTED to do. I am not only a digital scrapper but also (and more often) a traditional scrapper. I love being able to touch and feel the textures, the physical art I have to show after an entire afternoon spent creating and making a mess, and getting to share that with others. I also love the ease and convenience of being able to grab my laptop and just be anywhere to create. Right now I am scrapping because I entered MOC 9. Hoping it would light a spark of joy for something I truly love but do not have the motivation for. 2020 sucked the fun, and the joy out of things I once loved, so here is to 2021, a fresh start, a new year, and to getting back to all the fun, joyful, wonderful reasons I love scrap!

      This is beautiful! I love the rich, moody tones and the wonderful clustering. Very thoughtful journaling. I hope MOC is just what you need to get that spark back. :)
