The Weight Of Expectations by Hopemona2020

In this raw and unflinching memoir, I share my deeply personal struggle to find acceptance and belonging in a society that often seeks to marginalize and shame those who don't fit the mold. With unapologetic honesty, I recount my experiences growing up fat in a thin-obsessed world, navigating the complexities of body image, self-worth, and identity. From the painful sting of bullying and fat-shaming to the liberating power of self-love and acceptance, I take readers on a journey of resilience, self-discovery, and ultimately, triumph. With humor, vulnerability, and fierce determination, I challenge societal norms and confront the harsh realities of living in a body that doesn't conform. This memoir is my story of finding my voice, claiming my space, and learning to love myself in a world that doesn't always love me back. I share my struggles, my fears, and my moments of triumph, in the hopes that my story will inspire others to do the same.

How To Manage Your Misdemeanors,a guide by Athea by GrandmotherWillow7

If being uncomfortable was an exit, then we had passed it long ago. I am about as outdoorsy and brave as a lawn flamingo. The most outside experience I've ever had was when I was leaving the womb. I got out of the car and I was starting at the bottom of a mammoth boulder shaped mountain that stretched endlessly into the horizon. From the caverns of the stony alps, trees ascending with hopes of scraping the sky with their long green branches. The calm, fresh air washed over my smoke tainted lungs lovingly. It was clear, she was going to murder me.

Paint Us Gray: Part 1 by actressesumner

Rejection. Betrayal. Heartbreak. Grief. Unfortunately, we've all had a swallow, some more than others, of this bitter brew. This is just a sliver of my chapter that is a part of this world's grand narrative; it's about one person's toe dipping into the brokenness of the Earth, and the ripples, waves, tsunamis it created in her life. A couple of months ago, while consoling a friend grieving the loss of a relationship, he asked me a question no one had ever asked me before. A very vulnerable and powerful question. I had been sharing some of my own similar experiences with him when he messaged me that life changing question, "And, what did you see at the top of the mountain?" While his words were just letters on a screen, I could see the hunger in his eyes, hear the desperation in his voice, sense the overwhelming thirst of a person climbing up an incredibly steep and treacherous mountain. What did I see at the top of the mountain? This book is my answer to this question. Let's go for a hike.

Wild Avalon by lovelycrowsong

After coming home to her apartment to find her boyfriend dick deep inside another woman in the bed she had slept beside him just last night. Avalon is devastated, embarrassed and heartbroken. To escape her shattered life, Avalon puts distance between herself and her now ex boyfriend. Taking on her first field research project solo, Avalon runs all the way to Gros Morne National Park. Planning to hike in the wild untamed expansive park for a week to calm her broken heart before moving on to study the Northern caribou migration habits for the summer. A chance to reconnect with her own beast and nature before dedicating herself to putting her Ecology Degrees to good use and figuring out how to build a life that no longer had Aaron in it. Avalon was expecting nature, bugs, and wildlife while running away from her problems. She wasn't expecting anything like what she finds after getting diverted from the trail she planned to hike. Or perhaps, it found her.

Pathless: The Search by Vox_Noctis

The story of a wanderer who did not seek fame or great adventures, but his own path in silence and solitude. His steps led him through dense forests, barren hills, and endless valleys, where only nature was his companion. Was his journey an escape from the world, or perhaps a search for a deeper meaning of his existence? Each day presented him with new challenges, requiring courage and perseverance. The mysteries hidden in silence can be the greatest challenge, and discovering oneself - the most difficult of adventures.
