Selfworth Stories

Arata copes with rejection the only way a sociology and psychology student knows how: by turning his heartbreak into a documentary project. He interviews, films, and photographs people right before they confess their love, and immediately after they get their answer. But after completing four cases, superstition takes over-in Japan, four is an omen of bad luck and death. ​Unwilling to leave his project on an unlucky note, Arata searches for a fifth subject and finds Yuki Usui, a high school senior preparing to confess her feelings to a classmate. As Arata follows her through the lens, watching Yuki's fragile resolve face the ultimate gamble of the heart, he is forced to confront his own quiet grief-and discover what it really takes to move forward.

Some wounds never bleed, yet they hurt the most. This book is for the people who smile while carrying battles no one knows about. For the ones who stay strong for everyone else but quietly fall apart when they are alone. For the ones who overthink every word, blame themselves for things they couldn't control, and keep asking, "Am I enough?" Mental health is not only about depression or anxiety. Sometimes it is the silent exhaustion of pretending to be okay. Sometimes it is the fear of being judged, the habit of hiding your feelings, or the voice in your mind that keeps telling you that you are not good enough. These pages will not promise a perfect life or tell you to "just be positive." They are here to help you understand yourself with honesty, patience, and kindness. Sometimes, healing does not begin when someone gives you advice. It begins when you finally feel understood. If even one page makes you feel less alone, helps you breathe a little easier, or reminds you that your mind deserves kindness too, then these words have found the right person. Maybe that person is you.

Sometimes, love makes us forget the things we promised ourselves we'd never tolerate. We become too understanding. We make excuses. We wait for messages, beg for reassurance, forgive the same mistakes, and convince ourselves that maybe, just maybe things will change. This is a collection of 70 reminders for every girl who has ever loved too deeply, stayed too long, or forgotten her own worth while trying to keep someone else. From knowing when to let him go, recognizing the difference between effort and the bare minimum, setting boundaries, choosing peace, and understanding what healthy love should feel like these pages are reminders that you should never have to beg to be valued. Because love is beautiful, but losing yourself for love isn't. Read this when you're confused. Read this when you miss him. Read this when you're tempted to go back. And especially read this when you need to remember who you are. You deserve to be loved without having to teach someone how to love you.

Behind every grade is a story that a number can never tell. In the demanding world of education, especially for students striving to excel, pressure, expectations, sleepless nights, and fear of failure can make a single score feel like a judgment of an entire person. But perhaps we were never meant to be measured by numbers alone. This is a reminder that beneath every grade is a student who is learning, struggling, persevering, hoping, and becoming stronger.

Short Story

Just a bunch of poems that I hope resonate with you as much as they do with me 😊

My hair starts to fall a lot again. Everyone knows what this means, like, "Oh shit, we went back to square one, to this sucky feeling." But unfortunately, this time is the worst!! I never wanted to be here. I never wanted to do this. I'm always asking why me? Am I really that bad?! Do I deserve all of this, or is this just my destiny and I have to accept it?

･ﾟ: *･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ*:･ﾟ Alexa has always known what she wants. To graduate. To give her siblings a better future. And, above all, to give her Lola the life she deserves. She is smart, determined, and used to carrying everything on her own. But behind every achievement is a girl quietly fighting battles no one sees. So she made herself one promise: she would never fall in love. Because to Alexa, love is something meant for people who aren't broken. And with the wounds of her past and the weight of responsibilities on her shoulders, she has convinced herself that maybe she's better off alone. Until Lune enters her life. He is everything Alexa isn't-different in personality, beliefs, and the life he comes from. Yet somehow, he sees through the walls she's spent years building. And when someone finally makes her feel like she is worth choosing, Alexa is faced with the one thing she never prepared for: What if love isn't meant to complete her, but to help her find the missing piece of herself? But can Alexa learn to let someone in without losing herself? Or are they simply too different to ever become them? Maybe, in a world where she thought she was already whole, Lune is the piece of her she never knew was missing. Sometimes, the person you least expect becomes the piece of you that makes everything finally make sense. A Piece of You. ･ﾟ: *･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ*:･ﾟ

This book contains a daily dose of positivity. Sometimes, words are all people look for when they are carrying heavy responsibilities, silent struggles, and years of unheard and unseen emotions. A few comforting words can make someone feel understood, even when they don't know how to express what they are going through. But sometimes, words aren't enough. Still, I hope the words in this book reach you at the right time and help you in some way. Maybe you will find a little comfort, hope, strength, or simply a reminder that you are not alone. Read these words whenever you need them. Take what feels right for you, and leave behind what doesn't. I hope this book becomes a small place you can return to whenever life feels a little too heavy.

This is poetry woven into a story to make you love yourself no matter what

I wish for many of us to see beyond what meets the eye and understand more than what we think we know. This piece is my hope-that others might feel the same way, and capture what I'm trying to say beneath the surface.

He was born unwanted. He was raised silenced. He was the shadow of his twin. Tsuna Sawada was never meant to matter. Born second, he was the spare-the unwanted twin.

His brother abused him. His mother looked away. His father didn't care. But then Luce came. A dying Sky Arcobaleno, she saw something in Tsuna that no one else did. She gave him her pacifier, her power, her legacy. She gave him a chance. Now Tsuna is the new Sky Arcobaleno-the most powerful being in the world. But his family doesn't know.

Madison Caruso has always known what it feels like to stand on the outside; too quiet, too strange, too easy to overlook. But at home, in her father's arms, she is safe. She is enough. Until one sudden loss takes that refuge away, and Madison is left to face cruelty, loneliness, and grief with nowhere left to hide. Chance Hill has everything people admire. Popular. Talented. Untouchable. Life has always bent in his favor, and he's never had to ask who he is beneath the applause.

From opposite ends of the social world, Madison and Chance grow up believing different lies about themselves. Until life turns both upside down. Only then do they discover a soundless truth: before you can be loved by someone else, you must first learn your own worth.

In a nation where noise is power and only the known survive, one young man dares to rise without a name, a voice, or a sponsor. Damilola is not your typical candidate. No party is backing him. No posters flood the streets. All he holds is a worn-out Bible, a burning vision, and a heart that refuses to give up. Mocked by friends, silenced by fear, and haunted by the weight of a humble background, Damilola enters a race that wasn't meant for someone like him - a race where the real enemies are invisible and the loudest battles are fought in secret. But could this unseen candidate be the answer a broken generation has been praying for? Will faith be enough when the system is against him? Or will his voice be lost in the noise? The Unseen Candidate is a gripping journey of purpose, rejection, divine calling, and the quiet power of a man who chooses to believe - against all odds - that destiny does not need permission. OVERVIEW: In a town where elections are bought with rice and lies, one young man is sent by God - not with money, but with a message. He's unknown, unqualified by human standards, and unprepared for the level of betrayal, warfare, and heartbreak that awaits. But he learns that even when no one sees you... God does. ---

At eighteen, Emily Carter watches a husband quietly correct his wife's clothing in a crowded clinic waiting room and feels a sharp, confusing ache she cannot name. Weeks later she meets Officer Jake Slater, charming, protective, the first man who has ever looked at her like she is worth keeping. The romance is swift. The proposal arrives like rescue. Marriage feels like the end of loneliness and the beginning of safety. It is neither. What starts as care hardens into control: measured meals, approved clothing, monitored phones, the slow erasure of every independent edge. Jake's love is intense, consuming, and conditional. His hands can soothe or punish with equal intimacy. Desire becomes another leash. By the time Emily understands the shape of the cage, she has no money, no contacts, no diploma, and a husband who knows exactly how the system works. In a city that asks why women stay while offering almost nothing to help them leave, Emily must decide how much of herself she is willing to lose, and whether the girl who once felt anger on a stranger's behalf still exists strongly enough to walk out. Dark, unflinching, and devastatingly human, this is a story about the quiet architecture of coercive control, the treacherous pull of intermittent kindness, and the costly, imperfect courage required to choose the unknown over the familiar cage.
