Minsan, pinaparamdam ng buhay na parang left behind tayo-parang extra sa isang pelikula. 'Yung tipong nandiyan ka, pero parang walang nakakapansin.
Parang margin sa isang picture-nandoon, pero hindi talaga tinitingnan.
Ang librong ito ay para sa mga taong nakaka-experience maging background character sa sarili nilang story. 'Yung pakiramdam na parang hindi ka nakikita ng pamilya, nale-left out ka ng mga friends, at hindi napipili sa love. 'Yung may mga gabi na napapatanong ka sa sarili mo kung may value ka ba talaga, kung may lugar ka ba talaga sa mundo, kung magiging enough ka ba balang araw?
Pero ito rin ay kwento ng paglalakbay-mula sa lungkot at self-doubt, papunta sa unti-unting paghilom. Isang proseso ng pagtanggap, pag-intindi, at pagmamahal sa sarili.
Hanggang sa dumating ka sa realization na hindi ka talaga ginawa para manatili sa gilid.
Hindi ka margin.
Hindi ka outcast.
Hindi ka unchosen.
Isa itong paalala na habang pakiramdam mo invisible ka, may halaga ka pa rin. Kahit pakiramdam mo binabalewala ka, sapat ka. Kahit hindi ka palaging pinipili, karapat-dapat ka pa rin.
Dahil kahit anong rejection pa ang iparamdam ng mundo, you were never meant to stay in the margins.
You deserve to be seen.
You deserve to be heard.
At higit sa lahat, you deserve to be loved.

Basking Brooks
New chapters everyday for your mind, your heart and most of all, your soul!! Saunter by the busy, flowing brook which gurgles like an infant, basking in the late afternoon sun. Feel the cold caress of green grasses, gently thawing under bare feet; their blade-arms sprinkled with faint dewdrops. Lie there, remain motionless and let everything from the inside as well as outside get washed away along with the flowing water. Basking Brooks aims at bequeathing the feel of soulful lightness that envelops the human heart from divine nature, by carefully wading through the readers' minds - scanning, deeply analysing and poking at difficult places to release the soul from cages within. The book is not like any other self-help book to give first-hand advice on how to live, love and survive. It will make you look deeper inside your being, inside those trenches which had not seen any light until then. You will come face to face with the broken, battered, scarred and eventually-healed soul of yours; the encounter that you may have been either faking to have had or avoiding all this while. You will be made to embrace yourself and, ultimately, feel light at heart. The book will become your best friend with whom you will have deep, meaningful midnight conversations - no hiding or running away performances. It will strip you down to your flesh and bones and beyond that, to your heart and naked mind too. It will sort you out by slowly allowing you to collapse on yourself and then build a 'new-you' out of the pieces, now refined and mystically pure; yes, similar to a phoenix, only here, it is not a myth.Complete

What if it's you?
It's always the reader who falls in love with the characters while reading a book. I'm here to let you know that it can be different. We. We all want to feel. We all want to feel the fire of love. We all want to feel the fire of love, the real one that will make us naturally gain an enticing and gleaming soul. A sparkle that will lighten up the gloominess we got to use, but even though our eyes might hurt under the intensity of the foreign light, we refuse to close them. Once we glimpse at the beauty and innocence of the virgin world, world of love, we won't allow our minds to take us back to the way we were. Fearing the melancholy. We all want to feel the fire of love. No matter how hard we deny it, somewhere in the deepest and darkest corners of the back of our heads, corners that our train of thoughts is scared of taking us to, we have a secret story that we want to keep to ourselves, a special memory that we cherish and remember everytime we are alone, a dream that we put so much strength believing in it and holding on the smallest possibilities of its realisation, an image of our perfect lover to whom we possess a blind, dreamy and unconditional love that will make us more than willing to accept them with all their flaws. We all want to feel the fire of love. The one that gives us goosebumps at the thought of the right one, butterflies when we touch them and have a taste of the sweetness of their hearts, chills when we lock eyes and let our imagination get wild. It will feel like a dream, the kind of dreams we wish could last an eternity because they simply make us happy. We all want to feel the fire of love. But none of us want to get burned. What if... What if we will feel it, feel loved? What if that someone is perfectly fit for us? But.. What if that someone turns into something? What if something falls in love with us? What if something falls in love with you?Complete

CAUTION: I DID NOT PUT MATURE ON BUT CONTAINS SENSITIVE TOPICS OF ABUSE INCLUDING S/A... & probaly some swearing. There will be disturbing sh*t in here. This book is a poem book of my life pretty much. Its my thoughts and emotions spoken in a different suppossed to be more emotional and deeper way then just looking at what happened and crying about it. What happened can never be fixed but I won't let those people go by un-noticed and I hope karma sincerely kicks them in more then the ass someday. I don't wish pain upon no one but I do crave for them to just UNDERSTAND what they made me feel since they all walked away without a scrape, just a smirk on all their faces in the end. Or they're narcassistic. Theres also letters to people who I still think of to this day that will probably never read them but you guys still hold a special place in my heart. This book is letters and poetry to all; people of my past, present, future, and not only just SURVIVORS but WARRIORS too. You're never alone my loves... Welcome to : "Message Not Delivered"Complete
