The way I journal, I have a bash script that looks for today's date in past years, and opens them alongside the current entry.

It was fascinating when I started doing it because before it, I didn't really think about future me reading past entries. So it has shaped how I journal, and it has also made me journal more often, because I don't like the days where there's no past entries to read.
