There is a reason, journal therapy is so popular, and effective. Writing, down, your feelings, thoughts and emotions, is not only healing, but, liberating. Writing a short love story, about the events, which occurred in your life, has the same healing benefits, as journal therapy.
The healing benefits, not only applies, to the writer, but to the readers, as well.
Readers, can actually, learn from the mistakes, and wisdom of characters in the story. Insight is priceless, and love stories are usually full of insights.
Love stories, don't always have to include pain, however, few don't. Sharing your love story, will go a long way, in helping your own heart to heal, as well as the heart, of others.
The benefits are so great, it's almost frightening, to seek out beginning writers and publish their work on a major love story site. However, when you look at it, the author is telling his or her story. The truth, with a few added factors, makes for a good short story.
The events, which happened in your life are real. Of course, no one wants to read a negative take, on deceit, or a cheating husband. This is one of the benefits of writing your story. It forces you to look at the events, of your life, from a different perspective. It also forces you to review the events, in the correct chronological order, which can help you to understand, what really, happened.
People, often won't write their love story, or any story, which actually, happened to them. However, they have no problem, having someone else, write the story for them. This is cheating, when it comes to healing. The real healing comes, when you take the time, to write "your" story, if only in your journal.
