Introduction
In this age of technology, sharing your stories can take many forms; including writing it by yourself. Everyone has a story to tell and sharing your story, for yourself and/or your loved ones, can give important knowledge and possible guidance to those we care about. No one knows your achievements, difficulties, fears and successes except you. The important thing is to tell and share your story.
Memories only last so long. Eventually you begin to forget the details that give life and accuracy to those memories. You may want to write the facts, but to assure a more interesting document, you need to include details and not just a chronological listing of factual experiences (what happened, when, and what resulted) but also the feelings and emotions involved before, during, and after the facts. This program can aid you in exploring some ways to do that and do it in an interesting and exciting way. Writing about our lives can convey to others—as well as ourselves—what we went through to get where we are. Including the emotions related to rejection, abuse, and disappointments as well as joys, financial or social success, honors, personal achievement, and spiritual awakening allows others to realize shared experiences and that our knowledge and information could be helpful.
We will be reviewing the many resources available; some suggestion's for handling the challenges involved in writing about your life; discuss several creative writing styles and other topics that will assist you in writing in your document you would be proud of. While some people have had an exciting or unusual life, even such that they have been asked to write their stories. Others may feel they have nothing to say. Or feel their experiences are too painful and they don’t want to be reminded. In truth not all memories and stories are easy to tell. However writing can help each of us have a deeper understanding of who we are and how we have handled our problems and stresses. Individual experiences may seem trivial or possibly unimportant, but they are all essential to define who we are, where we have been, and where we are going and no matter your achievements and/or challenges in life, your story is worth writing.
It’s been said that kids who are familiar with their family’s lives seem to be more effective in their life. They see the challenges and the work needed to handle experiences they face. They are exposed to the problems and solutions and may be able to deal with what comes up in life in a more positive way.
Life is an adventure all of us are experiencing one moment at a time. Your life is as unique as your fingerprints—share it with your family and friends or write it just for yourself.
