This woman is journaling since 90 years

Human consistency and persistence in action sometimes amaze and embarrass me. They are impressive. Like the habit of one American woman who has kept a diary since… 1936.

She turned 100 years old. Have been writing for 90 years and have no intention of stopping it. Ok, these are not long entries. But still. Amazing.

I recently wrote a few words about how I adore bloggers who boast a tenure of 10, 15, 20 years.

This woman tops them all. An amazing story reported by Cathy Free in The Washington Post.

Evie Riski from Lakota, N.D. and her amazing story about diaries since Jan. 1, 1936. And this…

“I never write in print letters — it’s always in cursive,. And every night, when I finish writing, I always look back one year to see what I was doing the year before.”
