Why I don't keep a diary.

-Too easy to lose.
You pour your heart and soul into a few pages that can easily be lost or stolen or placed into the wrong hands.


-They remind you too much of your own mortality.
Pages can be ripped, burnt, ruined by rain, scrumpled up.
Paper is bio-degradable.
Your memories etc won't live on for thousands of years and inspire millions after you die. And you probably won't be remembered.
There was only one Anne Frank.


-They're too finite. The past, believe it or not, can change.
You can look back at a situation and see it through different eyes to how you did at the time.
But all you will have is a memory of how you felt/were before, and it can have a series of negative effects, because no matter how much you scribble it out, it'll still be there.
