hey you,

Hey You,

Happy birthday!

It's truly remarkable that you've come this far, navigating through countless attempts and enduring struggles. Your resilience speaks volumes, and I genuinely commend you for it. But amidst your journey, how are you truly feeling? With each passing year, I know you've jotted down words in your journal, expressing how amazing and hopeful you are about the future. You've embraced this point in your life with a certain positivity, or so it seems. Yet, I can't help but wonder if these words are your shield, a way to convince yourself that everything is okay. It's okay to pretend, but remember, sometimes confronting our truths becomes inevitable.

Recent days have seen you weary and disarrayed; you've sought refuge in sleep and indulgence in food. I've observed this familiar pattern resurface, but this time, it worries me more. Each day, a shade darker, a demeanor more melancholic, a facade that suggests an indifference, a numbness, a detachment from caring at all.

And then, there are the tears that silently stream down your cheeks as you lay down to sleep, whispers of thoughts that hint at the notion of ending it all. These thoughts aren't new, but this time, the air feels different; it feels like you're gathering the courage to follow through. Your journal remains blank, your thoughts a puzzle I struggle to decipher.

Hey You! Remember, we're here because we've chosen to be. The battles fought, the battles won—these aren't merely a footnote in our existence. Though your decisions remain yours alone, I want you to know that I stand with you, no matter where your path leads. I sense your fatigue, your silent weariness that you mask so well. I sense it in my bones.

I take pride in your ability to stay afloat, to keep swimming even when the weight feels insurmountable. You've chosen to remain buoyant when sinking seemed inevitable.

On this birthday, I wish for you to find the solid ground you've been seeking, the respite you deserve.

Love,

Abode Vera

🦩RELEASE AND REVIEW🦩 Dance with   Death  (The Four Families #2)  by Brynn Ford  🦩“But I’m the devil and she’s not ready to reign in hell with me- she may not ever be...” 🦩 Dangerously addictive…this series is dark romance in all its splendor. The second book of The Four Families is everything you thought you don’t want to read but once you do you can’t stop thinking about how the genius mind of Brynn Ford works in order to create such story, characters and plot. She can easily stand with authors like C.J. Roberts, Aleatha Romig and the great Pepper Winters.  Surviving is in the blood, but the future that holds Anya is anything but survivable, Vigo and Nikolai have taken so much from her; Ezra is the only one keeping her will to live, they are consuming her and she’s getting lost in the meaning of life, the tragic love story between Ezra and Anya is anything but easy. And now Nikolai has shown his other face, one Anya can’t keep wondering what it means.  On a personal note…. I cried like I haven’t cried in a really long time with a book, this story broke me over and over again and I know it’s still not over and yet I’m craving more.  Do not take this warning in vain, the second book of The Four Families series is much more darker, crueler and twisted; there are nonconsensual relations, torture and mind games; but this story had only one direction and it was that way, and only Brynn Ford could make of such a tragic story a love tale.  Goodreads Rating: 5+ stars  #dancewithdeath  #thefourfamiliesseries  #brynnford  #darkromance  #romancebooks  #bookstagrammer  #booklover  https://www.instagram.com/p/CFKDVItgVHm/?igshid=6f4j6v7h38k1

🔥COVER REVEAL🔥 BOOK DETAILS: Dance with Death by Brynn Ford (The Four Families, #2) Publication date: ‪September 15th 2020‬ Genres: Adult, Dark Romance, Romance Synopsis: Holding onto hope was dangerous, but letting go of it would be fatal. We’d made the worst mistake of all—we had fallen in love. But all the love in the world couldn’t save us from our captivity. Just when we thought we would be okay, a future we never should have hoped to have was taken from us. Our master was preparing to hurt us in his rage against our love. The only thing worse than the physical pain of the injuries he gave me was the ache of knowing what was to come. He was going to tear our love apart. I thought my life was hell before, but my master was prepared to teach me that I was wrong. Dead wrong. I was about to learn the true definition of torture, of torment, of despair. I could only dream about the man I loved, hope that he might someday fulfill his promise to find a way to save us both. But I had already learned the hard lesson that hoping only made reality harsher. The harsh reality was that my love was lost, my hope was gone, my life was over. And I was forced to learn the steps for this slow dance with death. #dancewithdeath #brynnford #darkromance #darkromancebooks #thefourfamiliesseries #bookstagram #booklover #coverreveal https://www.instagram.com/p/CC6rigNgMeM/?igshid=1jchwt1hpzetd

I haven't been so present on this site as I try to deal with how we all proceed over these next weeks. All the while I've continued creating cause its such a wonderful way to combat anxiety, apathy and a general overpowering sense of uselessness. I stitched this up while at the German Dance Platform in Munich. Subconsciously choose the motif from a 1488 medieval woodcut series - the Heidelberger Totentanz. Plus a few little contemporary virus balls added in once I realized what a fitting image I'd stitched up. Anyhow... how is everyone? If you're in voluntary quarantine but feel really alone, feel free to PM me. Let's chat. Also happy to tele-teach anyone who wants to learn a craft. Mending, embroidery, crochet.... stay safe. Stay sane everyone. . . . #community #stitchingselfcare #totentanz #dancewithdeath #virusinapiration #modernmedieval #medievalembroidery #badbitchesofhandembroidery #islandofmisfitstitchers #handembroidery #skeletons #doctore #witcheswhimsy (hier: Berlin, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/B92XMs3quBK/?igshid=1up9nht45bw1k
