+Personal journal
+================
+
+:date: 2021-07-08
+:summary: How I write my personal journal
+:status: draft
+
+For more than a year I've been writing on and off in a personal journal. This has
+started after a major change in my life that I felt I need to document. My goals
+were that it would easy for me to write and easy to review afterwards (also, I
+might want to let others access it at a later date). So I went with tools I'm
+familiar with: Vim, Markdown, pandoc and make. I wrote a small Makefile and a
+template for new entries. Since this ournal is not about technology, but my
+life I'm writing in Hebrew, so the files are left-to-right.
