Display notes log with emacs org-mode

Question

Here is the use case that I want to have in org-mode

I have next org-mode structure

Work.org file
* heading one
    - Note taken on [2018-12-20 Fri 16:07] \\
      Some note here
    - Note taken on [2018-12-21 Fri 12:37] \\
      Some note here

Personal.org file
* headin two
    - Note taken on [2018-12-21 Fri 16:07] \\
      some note here
    - Note taken on [2018-12-22 Fri 12:37] \\
      some note here

I want to see the log statistics for 2018-12-21 and as result have

    * heading one
        - Note taken on [2018-12-21 Fri 12:37] \\
          Some note here

    * headin two
        - Note taken on [2018-12-21 Fri 16:07] \\
          some note here

Any idea how I can implement it or use some existing features? PS: Look like I can't use agenda features as the heading items doesn't have TODO

It should be possible to see your desired result via the agenda and some special commands in it:

when you press "v" while in Agenda you can see which additional commands are possible:

"[" will include the inactive timestamps
"E" will include the first few lines of your entry (the number of lines can be configred via: "org-agenda-entry-text-maxlines").

It is not exactly what you want, but quite close.
