Someone has gifted me a diary for 2019. I have stopped maintaining a diary many years ago. I think I had last written a diary when I was in school. This one is such a beautiful day planner. Now deciding what should I write on it. A to do list or something that has happened during the day. Or just my feelings of the moment? Do you maintain a diary and what do you write in it?

I used to keep a diary when I was a youngster but only for a year or so. I think keeping diaries is more of a girlie thing

This is our monthly diary. Its a monthly calendar, we write on it and at the end of the month it goes to a file...we save them all. I hope you enjoy your new one.

@dya80dya Scared to do that just in case it falls into the wrong hands.

I don't maintain a diary. I left this good habit a long time back. But I love to pen down some good memories and experiences and I do that on my blog...which is more like a personal diary.

A lot of people have started blogging. I started but left half way. I do sometimes pen down some poems.

@arunima25 even I have started and then stopped many times. Don't know whether to start now and if I start I wish I don't stop in the middle.

I never maintained a diary in my life. I like to live life in present and forget about the past, since it makes me nostalgic.

I remember once I was upset and had written down my feelings in a book. My daughter later read it and made a big issue out of it. That's one of the reasons I don't intend writing my feelings in the diary now.

I try using a diary every year, but I just end up not using it after a couple of months. I could definitely benefit from one, though. I mainly just use the calendar in my phone to keep up with things.

No, I don’t have one. Even before I just don’t like to write things happen in my life and the feeling I have in a moment.

Many of us have tried maintaining a diary during our teens but most of us give up some time later.

I don't write on diaries anymore. If I have a planner, I just note the important dates to remember.

I'm like you - diary/journal keeping is not something that has ever lasted beyond the first week of the year!
