Question

Write a diary entry sharing any secret of your life

Answer 1

Dear Diary,
Ananta Awasthi has plenty to say, but there’s only one place in the world where she puts it down exactly like it is: in her diary. Her mother’s “sometimes” be allowed to read the 11-year-old’s journal. From poems, scribbles, sketches, details about her day at school, to what she wants for her next birthday, Ananta’s diaries, her constant companions over the last three years, contain everything big and small about her life. The result of entries made at least twice a week.

Khadija Khan, on the other hand, is very particular that absolutely no one reads her diary. “Sorry, I can’t tell you where I hide it. My parents are listening, and they will know,” says the 11-year-old in a determined voice. Just 20 days old at diary writing, Khadija is reticent about her new “friend”. Lots of homework prevents her from writing every day, but she does manage two-page entries thrice a week. “Mostly, I write about my day, what happened with me and my friends. I also like to download pictures of people and animals I like from the Internet and paste them in my diary.”

Do you remember the name of your best friend in class 7, the most exciting Diwali gift you’ve received or, for that matter, how nervous you were about that stage performance all those years ago? In all likelihood, if you are not a diary writer like Ananta and Khadija, the answer to those questions is a long, vacant look. For most of us, moments like these linger like a hazy dream because we have no record of what it felt like to experience something wonderful or poignant in our childhood.

Nupur Awasthi, an educationist who recently conducted a ‘How to Start Your Diary’ session for 8- to 12-year-olds at the British Council, in Delhi, says, “As children grow older, they find it hard to talk to parents about everything. Writing a diary enables them to express what they feel and also let loose their imagination. However, encourage your child, especially young ones, to share their diary with you every once in a while and laugh over their exploits, instead of lecturing them.”
