This life isn't promising. It's full of disappointments and if you don't make moves now, somebody will make theirs on you. Trust me, before I got to where I am now, I was doing some low down stuff that to this day I regret. I've smoked a couple people, and befriended some. I've loved before and I lost before. All in the name of war where in the end, nothing is promised. Nothing lasts forever and neither will we. You either wait for your ending or somebody creates one for you. Here's mine.

Dark coffee
I've often heard that love comes without warning when we least expect it. However, what happens if we don't try this new love opportunity by fear of suffering, being hurt and disappointed again?Is it true that it's never too late or there's a limit? If there's a limit, where it ends? Now that I know all these answers. I know that life isn't about a happy ending but the whole story itself. I just wish someone had told me that before I met you. Today I look back at our story and I wouldn't have changed anything about the way we met. It was just too good... ***WARNING for those who had been sexually assaulted, the content of this story might be sensitive***Complete

The second I saw her my skin heated and heart skipped a beat. I knew I had to know who she was. I knew I just needed to be near her. After my horrible marriage I knew getting involved with anyone was the worst thing I could possibly do. The problem was the girl of my dreams was standing right in-front of me partially guarded. She knew my family and knew about my past which should scare me away, but it doesn't it only draws me closer to her. My brother is getting married, I'm the best man, she's the maid of honor. If I screw this up even a little bit everyone is going to have my ass. The second I saw him my mouth went dry.

Those gorgeous blue eyes however pulled me in and saw right through every part of me. He's my best friends soon to be brother-in-law, and I have legal custody of a child that isn't mine.

Love Means Sacrifice (A Peter Pan/ ROTG Fanfic)
I find myself in the middle of a city. Not just any city though, New York City. My prison city. I am in the middle of the street. A car comes straight at me and I dive out the way-or I would have if this armor hadn't gotten in the way. I fell over my feet and landed on my face. I stood up and got pretty mad. I was just about to yell at the person when I remembered that they can't see me. I walked to the sidewalk and at least five people walked through me. I was so shocked. I was alone. No one could see me and I don't know if anyone is like me. Hey guys! This is the sequel to my book, LOVE IS DECEIVING. Go read that before this!! Also, I only own Megan and Alix.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...

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
