Beauty is not in the face;
Beauty is a light in the heart.
Kahlil Gibran
***
Navigating the world can be hard when all you see is nothing.
Natalia Coleworth had her eyes removed at the age of five and she has learnt to be optimistic about what she has by making it seem like it's not hard at all. But it can be hard sometimes when you remember that you once didn't have to translate everything into something you could understand or hear people's obnoxious whispers about you.
So when she decides to try and organise a residential for orphans with somebody she just met, her crazy best friend and her antisocial twin brother, she ignores the fact that it may not be the brightest idea and focuses on the fact that together they are all making other people's lives better.

The astonishing green eyes [Cole Sprouse fanfic]
"Treat people the way you want to be treated" is what my life is based on. It feels like I can't let go of something unless I try to figure out what's wrong... One time, I failed. I couldn't fix that one mysterious thing... That's when I realized that maybe a simple look could be the right way to heal thousands of stitches and open wounds. This made me rethink very deeply of the power of eye contact...The sort of contact that can cure someone and could give you both the same effect as drugs. It hypnotizes you, astonishingly, even when you don't mean for it to happen. Especially when it happens between you and the wrong person. Or is he?

Today I'm turning my fiction to reality. ❣️•••❣️ Excerpt: Just as I was about to seek shelter under some building's roof, the tires of a car come to a halt, I wonder who might pity the lonely girl walking in the rain. The passenger window rolls down, and I spot the most unexpected person seated behind the wheel. "Get in" comes out his voice, and I must've stood there agape for a few moments because next comes his rhetorical question. "Are you getting in or continuing walking in the rain?" Eyebrows raised expectantly. He sounds annoyed, like he regrets his decision to ever stop and help me. ❣️•••❣️ #5 in cynical #2 in loveandfriendship #1 in opinionated #4 in ihatelife #10 in nerdgirl #10 in HighschoolRomance #26 in GoodGirlBadBoy *contains mature themes. *contains cursing.Complete
A Thousand Words | ✓
Reece Bremer goes through life with a scowl and cold personality. Jessica Andrews goes through life with a glowing smile and positive outlook. Reece looks at life with dull, judgmental eyes that make him hate the world and the people living in it. Jessica, well... She looks at life through a camera. Literally. They're polar opposites, and that's what sparks Reece's immediate hate for Jessica the moment they meet. All he sees is a girl with the best life, put in the category of those who get everything handed to them on a silver platter. But who says Jessica's life is like that? Just like a photograph, there's more to the story than what you see. Stumbling across one of Jessica's hidden portfolio might reveal that her happiness isn't all that true. Behind that smile and each picture she takes, holds a thousand words of a very big secret - one that Reece is determined to find out. And who knows? It just might change everything between them. cover by dysanic || 2015 watty's winner for talk of the town ||Complete
