Journaling, a great way to spice up your love life.

Many people have a tough time vocalizing their feelings. This a great way to let the person you love know how you feel, without a lot of pressure, while at the same time keeping a history of your life.

Here's how it works, you and your partner take turns writing a chapter to a book. Write it in third person, sort of from a narrator's point of view.

The chapters can chronicle a fun date, an experience with or without each other, interaction with the kids, or anything else you can think of.

It's a lot of fun to write the chapters, but even more fun to read the chapters your loved one constructs.

It's super easy, I found a black leather bound journal, (that way my husband wouldn't think it was to girly,) I created a title page and it took off from their. It's so much fun. It really works great when I get upset that way I get my feeling all out their.

You don't need to feel pressure to write a chapter, short or long, every day - just when you feel like it.

I've had such a great experience with this, I hope you do too.
