No, journaling isn’t only for girls. You may find it extremely therapeutic. One great way of journaling is to refer to daily journal prompts such as “One thing I learned about myself today” and “A mistake that helped me grow”. Pick a topic for a different day and pen it down. You can find many journal prompts here.
