Dear Diary, A special written legacy of your youth...

One of America's former presidents, Rutherford Hayes, kept a diary all of his life. Diaries can be fun and full of adventure. They can be unlived dreams, your hopes, your desires. They can be very good stress relievers. They can document events and perk your memory later in life. They can even act as a confessional!

You and only you should have a key to your diary. It's a very personal and private belonging. Your parents,siblings or guardians may express curiosity over your diary. When you're a teen, everyone wants to keep an eye on you, eh?

Nonetheless, if you decide to keep a diary and you experience inquisitive speculations, try having a sincere talk with that individual. Explain that it is your private world, and it really wouldn't do them any great favor to read your diary, because much of the time you express certain things in your life through your writing that may never happen, even though on paper, it looks like they are. Does that make sense? Nonetheless, it's one small space of privacy that you're entitled to!

You need not record something in your diary every day. By doing such, it may become a chore. With time, you may find that you only wish to record in your diary every few weeks or months, jotting down particular events.

The Basics:

-Keep your diary in a safe place.

-Insist to others that your privacy be protected.

-Use your diary as a form of expression to relieve stress, to live dreams, or to document events in your life that are important to you.
