One Journal's Life is Audrey Borenstein's meditation on journal writing. As she speaks to her journal and quotes passages from her various notebooks, she acknowledges and honors the many lives her journal has lived. Her meditation is personal and intimate, embodied in her words: "I thought for years, decades, that I was your keeper. Now I begin to understand that you have become mine."
