March 2021 Journal Prompts

March (for me, at least) marks one year of everything in my life (and the USA) being upended because of the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s been a *YEAR*, and yet it also somehow doesn’t seem like a year could have possibly passed!

And because of that feeling, when I started compiling March’s journal prompts, I found a theme in the prompts I was drawn to include:

There’s definitely some wishful thinking going on!

It’s been a while since I went to a concert (2019 was ironically the year I went to the most live concerts), and I miss the excitement of early morning plane trips and hotel stays where I feel untethered from responsibility for a few hours/days, and I’m just a nameless woman on the precipice of adventure. So with a full year of staying at home coming into view this month, I want to get a little wishful and imaginative.

Let’s think about what we’d do and where we’d go if we weren’t in the middle of a pandemic. Let’s ask ourselves interesting “what if” questions and dream about our ideal life. Let’s reflect on the happy and sad of the month. I’m anticipating a roller coaster of emotions as certain dates pass, so here’s to being kind and giving ourselves grace this month.

If you’re following my 2021 prompts, remember to share what you’re writing/creating with me over on Instagram if you feel so inspired, and check out my creations on my stories!

Happy journaling my friends!
