Creative Rx: Spontaneous Scraps
Writing in my journal can be daunting and overwhelming. Sometimes the blank page stares back and waits impatiently, and sometimes I forget to take it with me. Of course, that’s when I’m sure to think or observe something journal-worthy. That’s why I like scribbling thoughts or ideas on the backs of used envelopes, bank receipts, grocery lists or whatever you can scrounge up on the go. I date them and stuff them in my purse until I have time to go through and sort them. Sometimes though I just glue or tape them straight into my journal and maybe draw or collage around them.
