    Maira grew up learning how to stand on her own. She kept her world small and steady focused on her studies, her responsibilities, and the quiet goals she carried in her heart. She did not ask for grand dreams,just a peaceful future, a stable home, a partner who would stand beside her. She believed that if she worked hard enough and stayed patient enough, life would meet her halfway. But some journeys begin long before we realize we've stepped into them. After the betrayals, Maira no longer waits for answers. She lives with the echoes of it, but she also chooses: will she let the past define her, or will she give herself a second chance at a life filled with hope? Maira is a story of endurance, hope, and the quiet strength of a woman who once wished for something simple and found the courage to start again. #selflove......No.1......... 29 July 2026

    When I was younger (not too long ago), I had OCD (or obsessive-compulsive disorder). Yes, that little disease that you barely ever hear about. Even though almost every teenager take the self-hatred road at some point, when you always stay that way, even in adulthood, enjoying life as it is intended becomes very complicated. Now, at 23 years old and cured (kind of?), I'm writing hoping that my journey to recovery and self-love can help you find yours as well. To be cured is to be aware of everything that ever mattered in your life. Disclaimer : I am french, so my english may not be totally accurate. My apologies in advance if so!

    So here's the context: this is an ongoing fantasy novel I decided to create for my younger brother's 18th birthday. I managed to write the 1st act only, but I made a promise to finish it. So I will be writing it here, to keep my stories in one place. And yes, it's in Polish, sorry. But the primary audience are my family and friends. Maybe one day I will translate it into English.

    Global transformation? Changing the world? These aspirations may sound too ambitious and lofty. But what if these efforts do not really begin with large-scale initiatives from the governments, or the intense influences that surround revolutions, or even huge leaps of noble actions by our extraordinary heroes? What if it truly begins with the humble and peaceful decision to transform one's own life? "Forming the Self. Transforming the World." is a philosophical exploration of identity, chaos, responsibility, and human flourishing. Inspired by philosophy, mythology, theology, and lived experience, this literature introduces the concept of the human person as a miniature universe, a tiny cosmos-an inner world capable of experiencing chaos, yet equally capable of freely imposing order through self-formation and what the author calls "Self-Drive." Perhaps, the project of transforming the world is not impossible to achieve. It just needs to begin from something simple: "Forming Our Selves."

    Things are not always what they seem. ---------- I walked briskly through the corridor, the sound of my shoes echoing and bouncing off the walls. Removing my wig and the pins keeping it in place, I toss it to the family butler as he walks behind me with the same urgency in his stride. I stop just in front of a set of big, wooden doors that shut my father's study to the rest of the house. With a loud knock and a faint "come in", I throw the doors open and march in. My father was sitting quietly behind his desk. I caught a look in his eyes filled with shock and surprise for a split second before he expertly masked it with his usual blank stare. "What is the meaning of this?" ---------- Adelaide Isla is anything but ordinary. Being the daughter of a prominent businessman in the kingdom is something she still considers normal. With her father an earl and close friends with the crown prince, her status is what she wishes is normal. After years of scandal, family drama, and tension, her father allows her to live undercover for her later teenage years. Adelaide was loving life up until she gets thrown a curveball as the grandson of the king needs a bodyguard.

    The door swings open, and in walks a strikingly beautiful woman. Her presence shifts the energy of the room. Conversations pause, eyes flicker in her direction, and for a moment, the buzz quiets. It's a collective reaction - everyone's attention is drawn to this sudden change in the atmosphere. You, too, glance over, almost involuntarily.
