It seems to me that many of the writers we read have some type of issue whether it's family or internal. I think that this genre does a great job of showing that life is something to cherish and to try and enjoy every minute of it, while you can. It also says to don't be afraid to try and reach your goals. This class has taught me a lot about what real authors face and you must have courage to enter this genre.
I think the reaction that you want from a story may not always be the one that you want, that's life. What you think will come out of it, maybe be the total opposite. I would have to agree with you, courage is necessary. Write for you and only you, if others like it then think of them as a smart reader. :)
