Random Thought of the Day

Have you ever kept a diary? Or are you more the type to keep your memories within your head? I have tried keeping a diary a long time ago but it was later discovered by "people" and it was a horrible experience. From then on I vowed never to write down my inner and secret thoughts. I think that keeping a diary may be too much of a risk, depending on what you write. If it is more of just a day to day, activity type thing, it seems like an okay idea. But for me to write my past and future plans, it is as if I am willing to share my life with others, and all whose eyes may come across it. Not that I have anything to hide...but I'm just not that comfortable.
