Hello and welcome to week five of the Points of Two Project! This week Kira and I were to take a photograph of a gift that holds special meeting to us and journal about it. I chose a framed photo and poem that my pop gave me. When I was in high school I loved writing poetry. I wrote one about an old house, which as inspired by a black and white photo in one of my school text books. Years later, my pop gave me the framed poem as a gift. It astonished me that he was able to find that text book so many years later and even more so that he even remembered the photo. I was thrilled and cherish this wonderful gift, especially since he passed away in 2002. I still have no idea how he located that book. He kept that as his little secret! :)

Be sure to check out Kira's blog for more information about her special gift and what it means to her.

Points of Two is a year-long exploration into the differences in all of us. We aim to journal focusing on the same idea, but create very different pages – two points of view, two different styles, brought together to showcase the idea that there is no wrong way to journal and everything you create is art. Join us as we journal the year, creating and exploring the space between and discovering how small that gap really is. The "two" are: Me and Kira!
