Self-reflection Stories

Alexandra "Alex" Harper, a 28-year-old journalist in a bustling city, begins noticing someone who looks exactly like her in public. At first, it seems coincidental, but soon the "double" starts appearing in situations only Alex knows about, following her movements, and even interacting with people she knows. Friends and family insist they've never seen the double. As Alex investigates, she discovers secrets about her past, hidden family connections, and psychological manipulation that make her question her sanity. The deeper she goes, the more dangerous it becomes; not only mentally but physically.

A heartfelt reflection on the pain of ending an eight-year relationship and the guilt that follows. This blog explores the emotional weight of realizing "I was unfair to her," the struggle of moving to a new country, the bond with a son left behind, and the journey toward healing, acceptance, and becoming a better version of oneself.

Late bloomer : someone who becomes successful, attractive, etc., at a later time in life than other people.

I grew up quiet - not because I had nothing to say, but because no one ever listened. "These are the quiet moments I never said out loud - memories, realizations, and pieces of healing written in motion." Notes on Life & Movement is a series of reflections told through journal-style prose and poetry - tracing survival, softness, and self-discovery. Each volume explores a different part of healing: the heart, the past, and the quiet moments in between. This isn't about pity. It's about remembering. About hearing the child I once was and telling her, "You made it." Volume 3 is coming soon!!!!

This is a heartfelt life story that starts from your childhood and follows your journey to the present. It begins with your early memories of exploring the world, your family's love, and the small adventures that shaped you. Starting school brought nervousness and tears-crying to your dad because you wanted to go home-but also the joy of making your first friends and learning new things. Year 6 was unforgettable, full of laughter, memories, and a sense of belonging, which made it your favorite class ever. Secondary school was harder-not because of studies, but because of people and the environment. Amid the confusion and challenges, you met Fatima, your closest friend and source of trust. Your bond has been strong since day one, but as time passes, you've noticed changes and heard that she might be moving on, which leaves you feeling hurt, confused, and scared. Hamida adds to the tension, accusing Fatima of betrayal and blaming you for "destroying" things, even though your friendship with Fatima started before Hamida was in the picture. Despite the drama and misunderstandings, you don't blame anyone else-you blame yourself for trusting too deeply, caring too much, and expecting things to stay unchanging. The story is also a form of self-expression, a way for you to pour out your feelings because there's no one else to talk to. It's raw, emotional, and honest, capturing your love, hurt, and the complexities of friendship, trust, and growing up.

My name is Tomoko Rui I am fifteen years old, I don't quite understand the concept of humanity and what it's supposed to stand for, or what it's supposed to feel like. This is my story, and the journey I had trying to find the true and real meaning behind being a human. (Updates each Sunday if not busy!) TW:mild mentions of suicide and descriptions that may affect sensitive readers! Continue at your own comfort I am a very young writer that tries to share theyr thoughts through stories, and I wish that I reach the right audience! Before you read the story itself id like to mention that my grammar sucks a lot, and that I don't really go by the rules since I want the story to feel like Rui is speaking from his own perspective on the moment you read! Also this is FICTIVE and nothing from the story has really happened, don't confuse that just because the MC has the same name as me, the author.

Dominion begins as a small, isolated town, a microcosm of human society. Its streets, homes, and landmarks are ordinary, but the novel transforms them into metaphors for consciousness, memory, and identity. The arrival of the liquid metal extraterrestrial beings-Dominion itself becoming sentient-turns the town into a living, reflective organism. The silver alien substance functions both as a literal presence and as a literary symbol for human connection, perception, and evolution. Through the narrative, Dominion evolves into a bridge between human and cosmic consciousness, a vessel for both empathy and existential awareness. The town's streets, mirrored surfaces, and silver tendrils serve as metaphors for reflection-personal, societal, and cosmic-while the gradual integration of alien intelligence creates a tension between fear, understanding, and transcendence.

This is a collection of every almost. Almost loved, almost chosen, almost healed, almost enough. These poems are for anyone who finally realized they deserved more than the stories they kept rewriting.

ये कविताएँ हमारे भीतर के उस हिस्से को छूती हैं जो अक्सर खामोश रहता है। हर कविता एक आईना है, जिसमें हम अपने ही विचार, भावनाएँ और अनुभव देख सकते हैं। ✍️ Sweta Pandey द्वारा लिखित यह पुस्तक आत्मा की यात्रा है - शब्दों के माध्यम से स्वयं को समझने की कोशिश।

A poem born under moonlight,🌕 about a love that once burned soft, then faded into questions, and finally settled into calm tides.🌪️🪬 It's the story of a heart learning to breathe again, of waves that hurt, heal, and return not to someone, but to itself.🕊️✨

An ongoing collection of poems that explore the human experience, delving into themes of peace, mortality and the power of words.

An OC oneshot, because I can't commit to a new story (I don't think...) Morella, a pink and yellow moth demon with broken wings and no voice moves into the Hazbin Hotel, the building is full of colourful characters, some more than others. The one person Morella never thought she'd get the attention of was the King of Hell himself, Lucifer. Having recently got back in touch with Charlie, he too has moved into the hotel, rubber ducks and all. Through daily disagreements with Alastor and trying to find a place within the hotel, the tall and slender pink and yellow moth demon is something to behold; not just because of her content silence, but there is something about her which Lucifer feels is luring him in, ironically like a moth to the flame.

A collection of spoken word and prose poetry exploring what it means to break and to begin again. These are the fragments we collect after the storm: the moments of pain, clarity and quiet strength that form the long, imperfect act of healing. Each piece is a confession, a reflection, a reminder that sometimes survival itself is an art form. These are not perfect poems. They are fragments of thoughts, echoes of pain and quiet confessions written when the world became too heavy to hold.
