“Writing as Therapy”

I was looking around on facebook and stumbled upon a link to this webpage, where i came across an article entitled “Writing as Therapy”.

I fully agree with much that is mentioned in the article, and here’s my favourite part:

“Don’t sniff at the smallness of the experience or the short sentence. As the saying goes, “Little drops of water, little grains of sand; build a mighty ocean and a pleasant land.” The accumulation of your sentences over 3-6 months will give you a collection of things you might have forgotten, and a picture of your feelings. Personal writing is therapy without having to pay a bomb for it.”
