Healing Pain Through Writing

Tweet

When I was in sixth grade, I began to start writing. Of course, I got correction in my grammars and comprehension when writing essays about special events in our lives during that time. When high school came, I submitted articles in our school paper and became part of the school publication. I submitted reflections, poems and short stories. I also started creating blogs, online journals and private sites where I tell about my days and lessons that I learned from my everyday experience. Writing became my passion. It became my life and my strength. My pen served as my bestfriend who knew what is in my deepest soul. I write down my goals and plans. And when times become rough, when I can no longer take things and when life gives me a very hard blow, I write them down. I write my fears, my worries, and those that stresses me. At the end of my "outburst" on papers, I jot down the list of things I can do to be able to handle these negative energies. In writing, I found healing.
