For whom?

Journaling. How many of us do it? I just assumed it was for my posterity to read and learn from my life. That is one of the purposes. But I have found fulfillment in the journaling process now in a few ways. Journaling helps me process the day's events, successes, and disappointments. This is helpful for my mental health. Journaling also gives my future self a boost. There have been times when I'm feeling down and I've read an entry of a happier time. I relived those memories and the entry helped me to remember that God is good, that life is good, and that I can live day by day in gratitude and joy. So yeah, I'd say journaling is worth it.
