That's so interesting Steph, thanks so much for sharing! I can relate to sending those long, rambling texts to good friends as a form of diary keeping / thought expressing action as well - I think I underestimate their impact. The only thing I miss about those specific processes is the act of writing truly for myself (which sometimes does change the tone or intention). Pro's and con's and whichever suits my world best at that moment I guess.

Again, thanks for sharing!
