Why write diaries? Some people consider them indispensable reminder of

what they are going to do each day.
A diary, however, is more than just an agenda or a list of appointments
you are going to keep. It varies from a list of events to a secret record of
private thoughts.
People write diaries for different reasons. Some people do it for fun: they
like to read their diaries a few years later.
Others define a diary as a sort of "photograph album in words".
There are even those, specially among teenagers, who think that a diary
helps you understand yourself: "It makes you think and form an opinion
on what you are writing", "When you express your feelings and
experiences, it is easier to overcome your problems; it's like a therapy".
In fact, many people, famous or ordinary, in fiction and real life, write
diaries.
Are you going to write yours?
