Overcoming Stories

The Silvestri family has always been strong. One father and four boys - the only constant life has given them. They've endured heartbreak, loss, and pain that reshaped them in ways no one could see from the outside. Sofia, a nine-year-old girl, has spent her entire life with her mother. From a young age, she has had to fight - for herself, for stability, and for a last name she isn't sure truly belongs to her. But as her mother's health begins to fail, Sofia is brought to the family she has never met - a family that doesn't know her, and a life she's never known. From the very first glance, everything changes. How will this new arrangement reshape the Silvestri family? And will they accept Sofia for who she truly is?

Some stories begin with "Once upon a time." Mine began with survival. I grew up in moving between homes, foster care, schools, and versions of myself I thought people needed me to be. Along the way, there was heartbreak, shame, grief, and choices I never imagined I'd make. But there was also laughter. Freshly baked bread at my Nan's house. Unexpected kindness. People who loved me without conditions. And the quiet, stubborn hope that life could become more than what happened to me. This is a story about trauma, resilience, and finding your way home-even if home is something you have to build yourself. Trigger warnings: discussions of childhood trauma, foster care, grief, mental health struggles, and adult themes.

I'm a cradle Catholic (Catholic by birth). I started to fall away from the faith during high school and almost took another faith direction my freshman year of college. My life was forever changed when I went to a weeklong Catholic retreat in Ohio. I had received a grace to truly and fully follow God during my first Adoration experience. This short-book is dedicated to my 1st and 2nd Anniversary of giving my life to the Lord in the Most Holy Trinity. Major events that occurred during that first year as a Practicing Catholic are described, though not all details are included due to privacy. I hope you enjoy my story and may it inspire you in your faith journey. God bless!

Vela was tasked with examining her sister's corpse. Ever the golden child, Carina's passing meant that all hands were on-deck according to Vela's mother. And so, Vela found herself in Alaska to ensure, as a mortician herself, that her sister's body was prepared for transport and burial. Nevermind that that she was out of her comfort zone in more ways than one: being away from the warm sun of Arizona, stepping out of her familiar morgue, and staring into her own sister's glassy, empty eyes. Nevermind that. She was finally doing something her mother would praise her for. A compassionate act the woman could tell her friends about. Vela's life in a funeral home wasn't something her mother could often write her friends about. Not like Carina, the hiker. Carina the, park ranger. Carina the 'Adventurous One'. But as Vela was making final preparations, something nagged at her, causing her to take up an empty position at a mortuary in Anchorage. An out of character act. What enticed her to stay in that godforsaken final frontier? Was it the call of the vast wilderness that had claimed her sister's life? The enigmatic man with pensive eyes that hung around the mortuary? Or the oddities surrounding her sister's death? Follow Vela into the snowy unknown to find out. Releases every other Sunday.
