sacred union by 5sacredunion5

I am a near-death experiencer. My academic and professional knowledge is in the field of art, especially visual and performing arts, and this book is not written as a mere researcher, but rather with the intention of discovering and offering a practical solution to the crisis of meaning in the world, based on my personal experiences. My native language is Persian, and I have a relative proficiency in English. This book is available in both of these languages in a single file. I will strive to establish an empathetic connection with my readers through all available mediums. I thank and welcome your personal narratives, critiques, thoughts, and empathy in advance. The content of this page may be inspiring and appealing to meaning-seekers, psychologists, artists, filmmakers, civil activists, and all those concerned with the ideals of humanity. My philosophical perspective is a critical view of modernism and existential psychology, presented in a simplified and accessible style. I will aim to explore, refine, and promote the central theme of the book based on the union of twin flames, moving from the parts to the whole.

Through these encounters, the dandelion learns about the beauty of giving and the interconnectedness of all beings. The story weaves a rich tapestry of emotions and connections, illustrating the profound impact of empathy, kindness, and understanding. It invites readers to reflect on their own hearts, filled with many rooms, each capable of giving and nurturing. This book might become your best friend!

The Farmer and the Girl by Jolras95

While on a vacation from her ballerina school, Ava, a young aspiring ballet dancer, returns to her family's home on a farm. There, she accidentally meets a mysterious farmer, hiding more than what meets the eye. He introduces her to a new lifestyle, one of admiring the beauty and simplicity of life. Can Ava adjust to the beauty or will her ambitions push her back to the city? Trying a complete change in her lifestyle, bonding over little details, facing the inevitability of an end to any lifestyle or change, what can she choose, suddenly stuck in a loophole of cruel realizations and evident futility? This is a symbolic reflective story that fits any place, any time, and every lost soul. Inspired by Terrance Malik Movie "Days of Heaven".

Jai Is That You? (Jai Brooks/Luke Brooks(Jake) by 5SOS_Fan18

Waiting On You by KyndraPerez

Using life experiences, I began to write out everything as I felt it, creating space to keep inventory of the cycles of my emotions. I recognized I didn't always love the narrative I had about my world, so I decided I wanted to change that. Every poem in 'Waiting On You' is an honest reflection of what it felt like for me to go through the process of learning to remain committed to loving myself and the life I live. My hope is that the words I write and the art I craft encourages you to examine how life feels from various perspectives - especially your own.

Whispers of the Highlands: Appalachian Folklore and Superstitions by kevin21852

The Appalachian region, rich in both natural beauty and cultural heritage, serves as a tapestry woven from diverse threads of history, folklore, and tradition. The landscape itself shapes the stories told within its valleys and peaks. From the rolling hills to the dense forests, the geography has not only influenced settlement patterns but also the development of unique cultural practices. The isolation offered by the mountains allowed communities to flourish independently, preserving their distinct traditions, stories, and superstitions that have been passed down through generations.
