What do you do, when you face something so horrid and nightmare-inducing, but nobody believes you?

Especially when her reality might change forever once she has.
John C. Maxwell, #1 New York Times bestselling author, helps readers take the first steps to living a life that matters inIntentional Living. We all have a longing to be significant. We want to make a contribution, to be a part of something noble and purposeful. But many people wrongly believe significance is unattainable. They worry that it's too big for them to achieve. That they have to have an amazing idea, be a certain age, have a lot of money, or be powerful or famous to make a real difference. The good news is that none of those things is necessary for you to achieve significance and create a lasting legacy. The only thing you need to achieve significance is to be intentional. And to do that, all you need to do is start. You can't make an impact sitting still and doing nothing. Every major accomplishment that's ever been achieved started with a first step. Sometimes it's hard; other times it's easy, but no matter what, you have to do it if you want to get anywhere in life. In Intentional Living, John Maxwell will help you take that first step, and the ones that follow, on your personal path through a life that matters.

In a city [Berlin] where neon lights shimmer like distant stars and shadows conceal the truth, lies a lonesome girl caught in the throes of a love that was never hers to claim. This collection of poems dives into her raw, unfiltered world, a place where love is a losing game, drugs and pills are not good to combine, loneliness is the only friend, and co-addiction drags her deeper into the abyss. Every verse is a dose of reality, stripped bare, no frills. But somewhere in the wreckage, theres a sparka quiet defiance. She wont let the darkness take everything. These arent just poems; theyre a stand against the fall, a testament to the stubborn grit that keeps us all moving, even when the world around us falls apart.
If someone had told her at some point that a supermarket would change her life, she wouldn't have believed them. She hated going to supermarkets. And she hated "life-changing experiences". Still does, actually. Yet there had been this rainy, gloomy afternoon. And the child. She didnt like children very much, either. They were loud, sweaty, and they ate with their mouths open. And they were creepy. Not this child, though. No, something about that child was truly fascinating. In a positive way. She just didn't know what it was. And what she certainly didn't anticipate was that, very soon, she'd be meeting this child again...
In today's world, we are constantly bombarded with messages from numerous sources, such as social media, news outlets, advertisements, and even the people around us. These messages, whether positive or negative, have a tremendous influence on our lives and shape our beliefs, attitudes, and behaviours. They act as a repository of information that may not apply immediately but can influence our decisions in the future. To lead a fulfilling life, it is essential to be mindful of the messages we expose ourselves to and choose those that align with our goals and values. We must strive to receive positive messages that promote healthy values, encourage personal growth, and inspire us to become better versions of ourselves. By filtering out harmful messages and focusing on those that bring positivity, we can cultivate a healthy and fulfilling mindset that leads to a happier and more successful life. As Christians, it is even more crucial to surround ourselves with godly messages that align
The world is filled with many strangers we pass, yet somehow never forget. At times we smile with our eyes, laugh in our heads, express gratitude with our arms, and connect with our lips. In other cases, we yell from our lungs, drop tears through our lenses and bring a fire with our fists. Nonetheless, one thing must be said: We live in this world together. In "Dear Friend" we will experience the journey of different stages in our lives through letters written for all walks of life. Inspired by the people we have briefly crossed paths with and the Friends we have ever since made. Here, we all become Friends because each letter is written for you. To the Wild Flowers blooming in the dark, the loneliness that sits beneath our hearts, and the Lovers we have found and those we are yet to find. To the World. We express hand in hand with letters what we cannot express in the lapses of time. I hope this book can prove to be The Vessel For Our Thoughts.
What really is life about? Well this book sure will not answer you that question but yes it's a valid one. But who am I to know. There is so much, so many different lives, lifestyles or fates. This is exactly everything that is in this book. Suicide to butterflies. We all see the world different, have individual battles to fight. Maya, Chris or Amanda all have different lives and just one thing in common: All of their stories deserve to be told.
