Amid the relentless pace of life, I find myself caught in a storm of emotions, longing for a moment of peace and clarity. As Eid week unfolds around me, the festive atmosphere brings back memories of simpler times, transporting me to moments spent with family, wrapped in the comforting embrace of tradition and love.

However, these warm memories stand in stark contrast to the harsh realities I face as an adult. The pressures of work weigh heavily on me, familial bonds that once seemed unbreakable now feel strained, and friendships that were once my anchor have drifted apart. As I navigate through these turbulent waters of disappointment and loneliness, I can't help but wrestle with feelings of inadequacy and a deep yearning for something more. The success of those around me only magnifies my own doubts, casting a long shadow over my sense of self-worth.

In "How Can The Day Be So Long?" I explore the depths of these complex emotions, diving into the challenges of identity, belonging, and the resilience needed to push through adversity. The story is a reflection of the struggles we all face in our journey to find meaning and peace in a world that often feels overwhelming.All Rights Reserved

Seeing Through the Cracks by euskoski

Everyone knows the rules of growing up. Once you're eighteen things become clearer, childhood problems melt away, and you're ready to go out and conquer the world. You're now an adult. You can look your parents in the eye as equals. Officially, you're on your own, and now you'll only look back fondly at what you once were, an immature child still learning about life. Or so you'd think. Jake is a young adult who grew up with the support of his family, especially his mother, Elaine. Though he experienced some rough patches as a child and fitting in was a constant challenge, she's been there for him. But it's time for Jake to "grow up" and for him, that means no longer needing his family. It turns out that life without them is a far greater struggle than he ever imagined. Living independently is hard, but admitting it is even harder. Join this true story of conflict and heart-pounding moments, as both mother and son explore the concept of parenting as a lifelong commitment.

UnFading LOVE(Completed) by Malyshka_Rose

Unfading Love..!! ⬇️⬇️⬇️ I pointed a finger at his chest and shouted, "Why are you doing this to me? You know I don't trust anyone easily, except YOU." My emotions overwhelmed me, making it hard to form words. To my surprise, his smirk widened, and with that, I gave up. Tears streamed down my face as I turned and walked toward the door. The intense feelings I had moments ago began to fade, leaving me hollow and alone. I had never felt this way before, and it was all because of Abid. I couldn't defeat him, no matter how much I wanted to. I wasn't stronger than him, and somehow he was still the first person I loved-and still loved. But from then on, I would never see him again, no matter how much I wanted to. I would never hear his voice again. Without thinking further, I turned back to him. I grabbed his collar, pushed him against the wall, and kissed him fiercely. I didn't know where this courage came from, but I just wanted to feel him, for the first and last time. He looked taken aback, but after a moment, he recovered from his shock, and we kissed each other for what felt like an eternity. ⚜️⚜️⚜️ Love, hatred, and obsession - these emotions can bring out the best and worst in us. It's a fine line that we all walk, trying to navigate through the complexities of our hearts. So, the next time you find yourself in a situation where love, hatred, and obsession collide, remember that Unfading Love is a powerful force that can withstand even the darkest of times. This story is about a man who is suffering from Phiblophobia, a girl who is Depressed beyond repair, and an Obsessed person who will do anything for his obsession. And his obsession is none other than her. #1- believe (23/12/2020) #4 - MysteryRomance A Heart ❤️ for a Star⭐
