"Now I know.
You must tolerate things you cannot tolerate
And be exhausted by what you cannot handle.
As helplessness and sorrow drown you,
Crippling into your room
As soon as sunlight vanished from the windows,
You spend some nights with teary eyes.
But that is okay.
That is the way of the world-
How it is, how it was, how it will be....
That is loneliness.
The curse,
And the blessing.
The lament of the wounded heart."
In this book you wont find closure or fairy tales. There will be just random stories of sometimes nameless people. some of the stories will be sad, while some will have a bit of happiness sprinkled in them . All of them (or so i hope) will be relatable moving. so if you are looking for some thinking material, or maybe just one or two life lessons.... tag along.
I do not own any of the media additions such as images or musical pieces, though they do add another dimension to the story, which is why I strongly recommend you to enjoy reading while listening as much as i enjoyed listening while writing .

The Memoirs of Melody
This story is not real. It never happened. It is not about the girl with everything that has nothing. Or the girl whose soul pours out in music notes. Or the girl whose heart is drowning her. It is not about Melanie or Melody. She is the main character but this book is not about her. Her story ends on the last page, the last reader. This book never dies. Because this book isn't about a girl. It's not even about the things that happen to her Nor her depression Nor her death. This book is about life. Life. Love. Time. Terrible. Wonderful. Ours. Twisted. Tangled. Dark. Heart-break. Joy. Today. Tomorrow. Limited. Gone. Life. Vida. Leben. Vita. 生活. жизнь. Leven. La vie. ΖΩΗ. जिंदगी. đời sống. 생명. ชีวิต. Life. Life. Warning: This book focuses on topics like depression and suicide and may be triggering. Please be careful reading this if you are sensitive. Also, there is some bad language because it's high school and not having curse words would be unrealistic. Lastly, I'd like to make it clear that this book isn't rated because of sexual content and while there may be references and a couple of scenes, there will be nothing super explicit. The rating is purely because of the self harm scenes and references.Complete
Out of my Control
Book 6 in the It just Happened Series. (Can be a stand alone but to better understand it read Never Say Never.) Love is supposed to be grand. No one prepares you for the heartache and pain. Not in the manner that they should. I had it all! The perfect husband. Johnny, he was everything a woman could dream of. Until I lost him, then my whole world shattered once again. Then there is River Fox the one person who will just not leave. He made a promise to Johnny, one he will not let go of. When all I need is for him to do exactly that. He infuriates me to no end! I just can't get him out of my mind, and it kills me! Loss... Pain... Raising a child on my own, it's all too much. "Katrina." He never calls me by my name. It's always princess, stubborn, a pain in his ass. "Look at me." I can't because when you call my name it does things to me, I know it shouldn't! Desire... Longing... Hoping for something I shouldn't... Wanting to be loved again... "Please, just stop!" Do. Not. Cry. I have shed way too many tears. I can't take the guilt anymore. "Just go. Please!" The first tears fall as the door slams shut. I'm betraying Johnny, by wanting his close friend. Even though I try to fight, I can't resist him. I hate it! I hate him. Mostly, I hate myself for the desire I have for the one man I shouldn't. How did everything get so out of my control?

It's Okay to Use Your Big Girl Voice
Inside you will find a mixture of both, extremely RAW and refreshingly HEALING accounts of my personal war with my past. Unfortunately, Childhood sexual abuse is far too common, and many of share similar experiences. Looking back, what I could have used more than anything was someone to tell me "You're not alone, there is a lightness through the darkness, you can heal from this and most importantly don't EVER stop telling your story to make others comfortable". I've learned that silence is the best weapon for a predator, and I for one, have never been really good at doing what I'm told. I don't intend on starting now. I wear my scar as reminder that I hold the power in my own story, it is mine to tell and I won't make myself sick keeping quiet because my truths are hard to swallow, other people's comfort is not my problem. My Goal is rather simple, to let the readers know, they too are not alone. If you are a survivor, even if you still feel like a victim, this is my personal message to you. "You are strong, and it wasn't your fault. Tell someone... tell anyone...tell everyone... We shift from victims to survivors when we speak up and tell our stories. There's nothing wrong with you, and the light will shine again. The longer you sit in silence the more power your abuser still holds over you, wipe your face warrior, because there's a lion right inside of you, DONT EVER GIVE UP!" *This story is FULL of TRIGGERS, please be careful reading if triggers are hard for you, your mental health matters* *I own all the Rights to all parts of this book*

Memoirs of A Healer/Clinical Social Worker: Autobiography of Bruce Whealton
A healer. A survivor. A victim of profound injustice. How does someone who has dedicated their life to helping others find the strength to heal themselves after losing everything? In December 2019, I woke up in a psychiatric hospital following a suicide attempt. A simple conversation with another patient sparked a shift within me-a glimmer of clarity that would change the course of my life. But how did I end up there? What devastation could drive a loving spouse, a therapist, and a lifelong survivor to the edge of despair? This book unravels the journey that led me to that breaking point and how I found the strength to keep living. My story is one of triumph and tragedy-of overcoming paralyzing shyness and social anxiety to become a psychotherapist, only to have my life shattered by unimaginable injustice. Between 2000 and 2006, I lost everything I had built: my home, my career, my community, and the love that once gave my life meaning. The destruction was sudden, like a meteor crashing down, and the aftermath left me in ruins. Worse still, the world condemned me as a villain when I was only ever a victim. But this is not just a story of loss. It is a story of survival, of how I faced the darkness and chose to keep living. It is a testament to how love, hope, and the power of connection can guide us through even the longest night. Through this memoir, I share not only my pain but also my triumphs-the moments of joy, love, and meaning that kept me fighting for life. I write this book for anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or unjustly condemned. I write it to show that healing is possible, that our stories matter, and that no matter how broken we feel, there is always a path forward. This is my story. But it is also a story of hope-for you, for me, and for anyone who has ever longed for justice, healing, and love.Complete

Faith💙
Having faith in something that literally isn't there but is is tiring. Also, the world hates you and you have to fight against the one thing you can't escape, sin. Choosing to fight this battle puts a target on your mind and sometimes body, and it can make or break you. ... Seems useless, right? Maybe, but it isn't, because either way it goes, we can't change it. It's scary, new, fun, and boring all at the same time. It's... not something humans would regularly do. But I'm taking the challenge and attempting to make it to a place called Heaven. Just read it, I'm not fighting you, I'm fighting FOR you. *I'm BEGGING A STRANGER!!!* As you know, I am a NEW Christian.👌👍👏❤😳😜 (and yes, best decision of my life, you should try it) HOWEVER, I am also human, which means Sin😈 Sweet, EVIL, Sin. (Chile, anyways, so!) In this story, you'll read about how I deal with Sin and do a terrible job at fighting what comes with loving the King of Kings at this stage of life.... PSA: I'm a working progress, and my POV of life is just WAY OFF! Another PSA from months after the book was finished: Please disregard the unorganized book! I was at a fiery point and my mind was wilding.Complete
