We all have dreams and aspirations but as the "new generation" what do we really have to offer?
You see I'm a simple girl.... looking for my way in life.
Getting lost in my own thoughts to escape reality that only makes reality even clearer.
The "scary world" we live in that most of us are isolated from; hidden away from by the adults that find it to be the best for us.
But that's just the thing .
What are we really hiding from?
Love? Yeah that's a load of crap.
Liars? Endless amounts of lies are told everyday ranging from drastic to even those pretty little lies told that are thought have no impact.
You see love and liars go hand in hand ugh.
Ahh love, that lie we believe in that leaves us resembling a hopeless puppy; yeah no thanks.
Sounds cliché right? Yeah well hopeless romantic just isn't my thing.
I'm Elena Grace and this is my story, my journey, my pathway in life and this is your invitation

|| COMPLETED || I want to be ready for college, but I'll be leaving everything behind. I don't want to forget my mom, my friends, or the memories made. Then again, I want to move on, run away from the heart break following me. I want to be free, I need to be free. For everything that I know, college could be a restart for highschool. A time where I don't make mistakes or where bad things don't happen, but I know they will. Though focusing on the negative won't lead me anywhere. Sadly though, that's all I ever learned to focus on. Learning things about my family that disgust me, learning about family members I didn't even know existed. It's all new, like morphing into a new body, you have to learn how to control. Sadly I don't know how to control myself, I can't control my emotions. I want to be ready for college, I am. I'll be leaving everything behind, but I need to escape the pain. ☆☆ Disclaimer - Read my first book 'Reality Hits Hard' to understand this book before reading it.

Fake Not-Fake Relationship
*Kyra Martin* It was never easy for me to hide my emotions, and that's the cause of all my problems now. I am a writer, or rather, I was. Now I'm just a heartbroken girl with only one published book and several drafts. Ever since that incident, I couldn't find it in my to right anything worth publishing. So, when I get advised to find my inspiration, I take it seriously. I decided that the only way for me to write love is to feel love. But the thing is, I don't want to burden anyone with my feelings. That's why I decided to go searching for a guy that I can fall in love with but he won't be burdened by my love for him. And that's when I found him. *Austin Smith* He is a player, well actually a retired player. He claims to have never fallen in love and will never fall for anyone. He does not believe in it. He is the perfect person for me. To him, the relationship is as fake as possible, but to me, I try my best to convince myself that it isn't. And that's how we got tied up, in this fake-not-fake relationship. ... "So, to be clear, is this a fake relationship?" I asked, furrowing my brows as I always did. "It is for me." he said carelessly, taking a bite of his toast. "But it isn't for me." I retorted. He stared at me, "Then it's simple. We are in a Fake Not- Fake Relationship. Simple."Complete
HIDDEN- Sides, Truths, Secrets
Rose knew she isn't normal. And neither was her family. Like which family force their daughter to live alone and change her house every single fucking year, definitely not a normal one. She wanted to find answers to all the hidden secrets kept by her family and she got the chance when one day, during her 'annual ritual' of shifting houses, a group of zombies attacked her........ and she met him. ------------------------------------ ------------------------------------ "Creature?" "Well, it implies to all kinds collectively. Both of bright land and dark land. The world is roughly segregated into three categories. First where humans reside alongside hunters, second Bright land, where all the mermaids, fairies, Pegasus, etc. creatures of the day live and on the contrary, third, the dark land where creatures of the night like vampires, werewolves, zombies, dragons, etc. live." ------------------------------------But what she didn't know was she has inherited the curse which had destroyed her mother's life before and is about to do the same with her. ------------------------------------ "So I am not a human? I am half dark and half bright land's creature?" "And that's what makes you human. How do you think the first human was born? Humans are hybrids of creatures of dark and light. But the firstborn humans had superpowers. Power no one can control. But with evolution, most humans lost their powers. Some are still left, those are known as hunters, but their powers are nowhere as strong as the firstborns." "So if Damon found out that I am a half-half hybrid, he will kill me?" "Without a doubt." First I couldn't be with my mate because he is a vampire prince and I belongs to a family of werewolves and now this. Fuck my life....... ------------------------------------Complete
My Vampire Prince
"Hello, are you there ?" "Yes, I am. I will always be there." "Can I ask you something?" "Sure my love." "Why don't I feel scared of you? I am here, in my room, talking to a stranger who is invisible, I don't even know your full name. But..but I feel attracted towards you. I feel like you are very near to my heart. Why do I feel like this? Isn't this wrong?" "That is because you are my beloved, love." "Beloved? Do you mean "vampire-kinda-beloved"?" "Yes darling," he replied. "But how do I believe you?" Suddenly my surroundings became darker. A figure started to appear in front of my eyes. He was tall, porcelain-skinned, pure black eyes, jet black hair, well built, wearing a white t-shirt and jeans along with a black jacket. He was standing there looking like a Greek god while I was sitting on my bed with a messy bun on my head and a tub of ice-cream, looking like a homeless person. I was staring at him as if he was the 8th wonder of the world. "Wait a minute, you are ...y-you.." "Yes, I am " This is not a prologue. It's just an insight into what the book is about. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is my first book .. so have a little mercy on me... sorry if it's very bad ... hope you enjoy reading it.

Memoirs of A Healer/Clinical Social Worker: Autobiography of Bruce Whealton
A healer. A survivor. A victim of profound injustice. How does someone who has dedicated their life to helping others find the strength to heal themselves after losing everything? In December 2019, I woke up in a psychiatric hospital following a suicide attempt. A simple conversation with another patient sparked a shift within me-a glimmer of clarity that would change the course of my life. But how did I end up there? What devastation could drive a loving spouse, a therapist, and a lifelong survivor to the edge of despair? This book unravels the journey that led me to that breaking point and how I found the strength to keep living. My story is one of triumph and tragedy-of overcoming paralyzing shyness and social anxiety to become a psychotherapist, only to have my life shattered by unimaginable injustice. Between 2000 and 2006, I lost everything I had built: my home, my career, my community, and the love that once gave my life meaning. The destruction was sudden, like a meteor crashing down, and the aftermath left me in ruins. Worse still, the world condemned me as a villain when I was only ever a victim. But this is not just a story of loss. It is a story of survival, of how I faced the darkness and chose to keep living. It is a testament to how love, hope, and the power of connection can guide us through even the longest night. Through this memoir, I share not only my pain but also my triumphs-the moments of joy, love, and meaning that kept me fighting for life. I write this book for anyone who has ever felt unseen, unheard, or unjustly condemned. I write it to show that healing is possible, that our stories matter, and that no matter how broken we feel, there is always a path forward. This is my story. But it is also a story of hope-for you, for me, and for anyone who has ever longed for justice, healing, and love.Complete
Evolution
There are a lot of things you don't really think about until they happen to you. Take rape, for instance. I always thought, "That won't happen to me. I have a boyfriend. I trust him. He would never take advantage of me like that..." I couldn't have been more wrong. Love in this day and age is often confused for manipulation and abuse. The warning signs are here. The things we say will tell us everything that is wrong. You are worth more than what you think you are. It's not your fault. If they tell you otherwise, get out. Burn the bridge. Always remember someone is waiting for you to walk into their life. Someone needs you. Someone loves you. Getting away from all of the wrong people and finding the right ones could save you. I can promise you right now that it saved me. These are the journal entries and selected poems from my first experience of love that left a unpleasant taste in my mouth- quite literally. I am putting this out for the whole world to see because I hope everyone will learn from my experience. People can see. We have no excuses to continue living our lives in ignorance. ...WARNING... HARMFUL THEMES INCLUDING MENTION OF SUICIDE, SELF HARM, AND RAPE. THIS HAS EXPLICIT CONTENT. RECOVERY AND AWARENESS IS THE PURPOSE OF SHARING. DO NOT READ IF THESE THEMES ARE OFFENSIVE OR HARMFUL TO YOU.Complete
