Are there benefits to keeping a dream diary?

I began keeping a dream diary about a year ago. I don’t have many entries since I can’t often remember what I’ve dreamt upon awakening. The ones I have are quite interesting.

I’m wondering what the benefits may be to keeping a diary of dreams. Do you have one?

What do you find advantageous about keeping such a diary?

Please note, this is a general section question. I’m looking for experience with dream diaries. This question is not soliciting interpretation of dreams.
