Writing your journal should be fun. Don't be afraid to express yourself in all aspects of your chronicles.

You'll encounter days with more, days with less and days with no material to write about, and this is ok! Always remember that journal is your most personal record. You are in charge! There are no have to's, no excuses, no judgments and no criticism.

So, as you prepare for your wedding and your new life ahead, keep a journal, and place it for safe keeping.

Eventually, your journal may become a treasured keepsake - a family heirloom!

Think of how much fun it will be to review it with your loved one as you celebrate a significant anniversary or another special occasions, or as your child prepares to get married.

If it were up to him, he would have left before watching game and went back to hotel room to sulk and beat himself up. Instead, we took this opportunity to help him work through this life disappointment and show him good that came from situation.

Sure, he didn’t make it to next level, sure it sucked, and sure he had a right to feel down and disappointed. But he couldn’t run away from situation because that wouldn’t help him when (and being human, he will) he failed again.

We gave him time to sulk and deal with disappointment and then we sat down to share our perspective on situation:

1.He did his best. 2.Because of his earlier accomplishment we were going to be able to watch a game we would not have been able to watch otherwise. 3.We were proud of him regardless of whether he won or lost, and were just so darn excited to be able to cheer him on. 4.He placed first in a town of 10,000. 5.It’s okay to fail. We all fail at some point in our lives. 6.There’s always next year. If he thinks he could have done better, he has an entire year to practice before next year’s shoot-out.

In end, we stayed, watched game, and had a great time! When life gets better of you, don’t let it keep you down. As old saying goes, “when life hands you lemons, make lemon aid!”
