October 2005 Archives
Found an interesting intersection between journaling and storytelling at a site called New Life Stories.
The gist of the process is to use journaling to work through loss, fear, and uncertainty. Writes the site's author (presumably Ellen Moore, PhD, whose name appears at the bottom of the page): "In a very real sense, we are the stories we tell ourselves. The stories we create will impact the way we experience the world. As we continue to outgrow our old lives, often through loss and tragedy, we need larger, deeper, more compassionate stories to deal with new and unfamiliar contexts. This is just such a time in history.
Moore shares my feeling that 9-11 heightened our need to tell our stories: "Our new life stories may be darker since the world changed forever on September 11, 2001. By including awareness of the more tragic aspects of life, however, our stories may be richer, fuller, more profound."
Moore offers a journaling newsletter and other resources, including a solid FAQ list about how to journal.

My local newspaper, the Orlando Sentinel, has launched an ad campaign called The Story of You. Perhaps the story aspect is why I've been a newspaper reader since age 7, when I read a certain piece of information about Santa Claus in Dear Abby.
I consider newspaper reading one of the non-negotiable aspects of my busy life and am always amazed that people I really respect are not newspaper readers.
Here's what the Sentinel said about the Story of You:
For over 100 years, the Orlando Sentinel has been a part of the
Central Florida community. We have seen the best and worst together.
We have been through the ups and the downs, the ins and the outs. Come
see how we are celebrating this very important relationship between
our company and the communities that we serve at OrlandoSentinel.com/storyofyou.
And learn how the most important story we write about is the one you
live, every day.
