...Writing is something that you can never do as well as it can be done. It is a perpetual challenge and it is more difficult than anything else that I have ever done--so I do it. And it makes me happy when I do it well.

Despite being confronted with more negative events, they reported greater satisfaction with their lives and a stronger sense of purpose.
