Diary

I used to write diary in school. I was in hostel right from my 6th class till the time I completed my graduation barring 9th and 10th classes. In my school diary every page starts with "Today I woke up at.... "
and ends with "Good night". In between I write what I felt when I saw a limping puppy or a colorful butterfly. In college I stopped writing when I got up or when I slept. Some more important things like what happened in the exam or how much I studied that day or happenings in the campus. In school I never wrote anything about altercations I had with friends.
Reasons:
1. I thought its unnecessary coz they are best when forgotten. Writing it in diary would never let you forget.
2. Anybody can read my diary though its considered immoral! If this happens when your are actually fine with that friend, u know how things would take a turn!

But when I am in college, I broke this rule as I broke many others and wrote everything that was on my mind. Once I couldn't hide the hatred for a friend who stopped talking to me some months ago and I wrote everything clearly except her name. I wrote how unreasonable she was to stop talking to me.
To my surprise she was trying to get back together and read the whole episode patiently.
Later she asked me if that was about her! Thats when I realized that my old habit is good.

My Lesson: Its good to share your happy moments and keep a record of it but its better to just forget your bitter memories as soon as you get over! I feel carrying them forward is not a wise thing to do.

Why am I reiterating this NOW? Ya you are right! I am sad about something but I want to forget it! I cant write it here, its against the rules! I believe in 'TIME's healing powers. I'll wait and let it do its business.

Okay! now I should get back to my Indian physical geography..

see you soon!
