Goodbye 2008

If you are able to spend some time writing in your journal today, or tonight, at all, write about farwelling the old year. What will you leave behind in 2008? Write as if to a friend, after all you have spent an entire year with 2008. Perhaps use the unsent letter format or write a poem. Farewell the old year, but try not to write anything about the new one coming along tomorrow. Focus on what happened and what you gained. Try not to write about what you lost, unless you feel ready or writing about the loss is a positive experience. If you like create a visual journal entry saying goodbye to the old year. This might be a great project to keep you busy if you need to celebrate New Year’s Eve alone for whatever reason.

I hope you enjoy this journal writing prompt and enjoy a safe celebration seeing out 2008.
