Do you keep a journal?

Seeing as there's a lot of other married couples turning to Taken In Hand after many years together, I wonder if any of you have had experience of journaling your progress? Have any of you tried both writing your thoughts or feelings on a daily basis, then reading each other's journal regularly and using that as the basis for discussing any problems that haven't been addressed? Could this be a good way for both spouses to get their needs met? Have you tried this? Does this sound like a good idea to you?

#1 Interesting Idea

Kat

This question reminds me of the Marriage Encounter experience that we had many many years ago. Of course Marriage Encounter is different as for us it was a Christian Marriage experience. However much of what was done there included journaling and writing love letters to one another. There would be questions and we would each answer them privately in our journals then either read them to each other or read quietly and discuss our feelings.

We have not thought about journaling our Taken IN Hand experiences but it sounds like an interesting idea. I am going to talk to my husband and see what he thinks about it.
