Clara, a 32-year-old woman, leads a seemingly ordinary life in a small town. Behind her façade of smiles and daily routine, however, lies an intense inner struggle against suicidal thoughts. Abandoned by her relatives after a series of tragedies, she feels deeply alone and desperate.

Despite this, Clara refuses to let herself be overwhelmed by darkness. Every morning, she wakes up with fierce determination to find reasons to continue. Music becomes her refuge, her headphones almost an extension of her being. The lyrics of the songs sometimes seem to speak directly to her soul, providing her with a measure of comfort and strength to face the day.

Motivational videos on the internet have become her daily ritual. Clara finds inspiration in the stories of people who have overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles. These testimonies remind her that resilience is possible, even in the darkest moments.

She also creates a wall of quotes in her apartment, each phrase carefully chosen for its encouraging power. Words of wisdom from great thinkers, lines from books, and even inspiring comments left by strangers on social media all play a crucial role in her mental battle.

Despite these tools, Clara goes through periods of relapse where loneliness and despair seem to prevail. However, she always manages to cling to a fragment of hope, whether it's a new song, a particularly moving video, or a quote that resonates deeply within her.All Rights Reserved

Chosen Together by Katherin3Coitier

Clara never had an easy life starting from the day she was born. She was born the same day as her mother's lover's wife gave birth to her own heiress daughter. Clara had been told all her life that she was the daughter of a mistress to a very wealthy family. The man that was supposed to be her father never treated her kindly and with the upmost disgust. If he had his way, she and her mother would have been out on the streets to fend for themselves, but her father's wife would have none of that. It was by the wife's glorious grace that kept the both of them off the street. Now Clara was twenty-four years old and have been away from the family for years now, but still went back every so often as they were the only family she had known most of her life. She wanted to also keep them in the dark thinking she was someone who couldn't survive without them. Little do they know, she would have cut ties with them if it hadn't been for the wife and matriarch of the family. The wife had been the one that was always so kind and supportive of Clara. Clara had always seen her as a true mother willingly to love the daughter of a mistress and her husband. The wife always gave her strength when she lived with the family and Clara admired the woman.

A Boy Named Jasper {Wattpad Featured Novel} by MidnightRose55

For with God nothing shall be impossible. (Luke 1:37) ~~~~~ Jasper is a screwed up kid, yet no one cares enough to find out why. Bruises hide his arms and alcohol stains the walls of his house, but he pushes forward because it's the only thing left for him to do. His days are spent in and out of the school psychologist's office, while his nights are spent in fear of his father. His guitar and the secluded spot by the train tracks where he likes to play are the only saving graces in the hell that is his life. No one disrupted this normal routine until Callie came. Callie is far from screwed up; she doesn't have family issues and doesn't understand the first thing about Jasper's world. Her house is filled with answered prayers and smiles of people who love each other. Her arms are clear and her head is full of optimism that Jasper doesn't buy for a second. She never second guessed her sunny disposition on life until she stumbled upon a boy and his guitar down by the train tracks. Callie and Jasper weren't supposed to cross paths. She wasn't supposed to care and he wasn't supposed to let her get under his skin, but then again opposites weren't supposed to attract either. Callie saw the good in him where most people thought there was none ; she was captivated by Jasper because he made her question everything she knew about the world. She thought it would be easy to teach him that there was still good left in the world, that there was more beyond all the bad he'd become accustomed to. She thought fixing him would be easy, but nothing worthwhile is ever easy and sometimes it takes more than one girl's overly optimistic persistence to pull a person out of the hell they've been living in; sometimes it takes faith and realizing that some things can't be done without it... ~~~~~ -Highest Ranking: #8 in spiritual, 10/25/17 ; #1 in Christianity, 2019 -Wattpad Featured Novel: 10/19/17

So instead, she tries to get rid of it... Again. But much to her disbelief, she is saved by the people she would least expect. She learns secrets about them that no one else knows. She feels included. Cared for. And dare I say it... She felt loved. For once in her life, she felt truly happy to be alive.

Words of life by maadamee1

This book is for you, who wants to read about what life can be like, most of the times. This book has reminders, poetry, tips and tricks, quotes, texts about meaning with life, happy moment and even sad moments. A little bit of everything life can throw at you. I have no filter to this book. Which means it's raw and genuine, and that is the goal. (You don't necessarily have to read from start to finish) If you for an example have a bad day, I have a chapter for you about seeing it thru a different perspective than what people normally tell you. Or if you feel like you want to know what happiness is or feels like, I have different definition of that in different chapters for you my dear! (And many more chapters, about everything you could think of) And maybe you know all of this already, and it glads me to hear. But give it a chance and maybe you'll find new ways to Incorporate it in your daily life. Or let it just be reminders for yourself. What ever works for you, love! - A.M🍷
