The four books in the Auralia Thread series if they were Penguin Classics.
These are not actual editions of the books. These are book covers I created using this Penguin Classics Book Cover generator here: https://penguin.jos.ht/?fbclid=IwAR1HZQq5y5AOEgFLfpEpZC6pzTKCF03ZQS8DlMJClEH4YaO2bQ2T5nZTl0M
The fan art paintings used for the covers were done by the artist KarenRenee. Her artwork can be found here: https://www.deviantart.com/bykarenrenee

And he took her in his arms and kissed her under the sunlit sky, and he cared not that they stood high upon the walls in the sight of many. And many indeed saw them and the light that shone about them as they came down from the walls and went hand in hand to the Houses of Healing.
My first official shipment came in the mail today! https://www.instagram.com/p/B9p1H4TgR3L/?igshid=3tt4956dbznm
hey just so you know “love hurts” means thinks like
unrequited love is painful to process and get over,
it sucks when you love someone but they’re far away so you can’t be with them right now,
sometimes we do something selfish out of love that we have to fix and work to do better next time,
sometimes the people we love aren’t kind to themselves, and it hurts to see,
it’s painful to love someone deeply and see them go through something hard that you can’t fix for them,
but “love hurts” does Not mean that being loved should be painful, scary, unpleasant, manipulative, or guilt-ridden. If someone you love hurts you again and again, even if they think they love you, they don’t. Not enough to be gentle, to be kind. You’ve gotta try to believe you deserve better. Love doesn’t “hurt” like that.
Hey, unpopular opinion, apparently. But people don’t just “have pain for no reason” doctors say this all the time (especially to women and chronically ill people) and the truth is, Thats literally not possible. Even if your pains are psychosomatic (a word I hesitate to even use because of the way its used so often) there is a reason you are having those pains whether its mental illness, abuse, etc. If your doctor consistently tells you that “well some people just have pain for no reason” get a new doctor. That’s a doctor who is not going to give a shit what your actual symptoms or experiences are.
I just wanna add to clarify the psychosomatic thing.
That word DOES NOT MEAN you’re making it up. It doesn’t mean you’re imagining the symptom. What it means is that the symptom ISN’T DIRECTLY CAUSED BY ANY OF THE THINGS THAT WOULD NORMALLY CAUSE IT.
I fought to get a PCOS diagnosis for 2 and a half years. For the ENTIRE time I was fighting, I was dealing with 3 cysts that were not going away by themselves and eventually required surgery to remove. At one point close to the end of the battle, I suddenly went blind. I was visiting my parents and was standing on the veranda looking out over the tree we had planted in memory of my dog and suddenly I got one of the shooting pains that I was quite frankly used to at that point and my vision started to go dark. It was like the sun was setting while being completely hidden behind storm clouds but it was 2pm in the middle of Summer on a clear day. Within about 30 seconds I couldn’t see ANYTHING. I was 27 years old and I was screaming for my mother.
My mum raced me to her doctor (he was a 15 minute drive away as opposed to 45 minutes to the nearest hospital) and he quickly worked out that there was nothing wrong with my eyes and what had happened was totally unrelated to them. Then he said it was psychosomatic and I freaked out, yelling that I was NOT making this up and I definitely wasn’t imagining it. Very quickly he calmed me down and said he believed me and I had misunderstood. He explained that whatever was going on with my abdominal pains (he suggested PCOS which I hadn’t even heard of at that point) had been ignored for so long that my body was starting to do things other than the normal pain response to try to draw my attention to the problem. My sight going was my body basically jumping around in front of me going “HEY ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING TO ME HELLLOOOOOOO??????”
He gave me some prescription strength painkillers and my sight started to come back as soon as they started to kick in. About 45 minutes after it started I could see well enough to walk around without help and within a day and a half I was back to normal. On top of that I finally had a scan booked to figure out what the hell was causing all the pain.
Psychosomatic symptoms are NOT imagined or fabricated or happening for “no reason”. Experiencing them DOES NOT make you a liar. It makes you someone who has been battling with something serious for so long that your own body has started to get impatient with you.
I completely agree. Thank you for sharing this.
Psychosomatic symptoms are literally your body flipping random alarm switches just to get any alarm blaring because you’ve been ignoring the regular ones
Relationships don’t take your anxiety away Relationships don’t take your depression away Relationships don’t stop the bad thoughts Relationships don’t stop your mental illnesses
Louder for the people who seek validation in other people. YOU are the solution.
And for Christians, God’s unconditional love and coming into our identity in Christ is the solution, though it is a process <3
For the perfectionist, for the writer who struggles with anxiety, and for Christians who want to connect writing and every-day life with their faith. This book of prayers is meant to help writers find the words to pray when the words will not come. Drawn from personal experience...
This book is now on amazon in paperback!! It’s been quite the journey.
Do you ever sit in front of your books and just:
And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age. Matthew 28:20
I did not think this book would be able to come out so soon, but then God happened. This book is going to be released in early March of this year!!!!😄 Soon I’ll post a short excerpt of the book to give an idea of the types of prayers in it ❤️ If you want to help spread the word, feel free! This is a book I want to get out to as many people as possible because of how much it means to me, and I hope it will encourage a lot of people. https://www.instagram.com/p/B8xOw54AcRM/?igshid=173wz74jh8271
People being like “this person did something wrong, of course you shouldn’t forgive them” like what do you think forgiveness is for
Innocent people? You think you forgive innocent people? Innocent people haven’t done anything wrong
gentle reminder
your mistakes, shortcomings, or failures do not define you - what defines you is how you respond to them. always be kind to yourself, please.
"Man is a mystery: if you spend your entire life trying to puzzle it out, then do not say that you have wasted your time. I occupy myself with this mystery, because I want to be a man." ~Dostoevsky when he was 18 years old
Makes me think of this song and movie:
