You were meant for this life! Look at your heart, it has touched darkness but still welcomed the light. There’s a part of you that refuses to kneel, refuses to accept that this is all there is to life. You are hope and love and pure light. Follow your heart, it knows the way. The universe misses the way you used to smile. Come on back home to the truth and the beauty of who you were meant to be.
It’s time to heal from all the destruction you’ve been through. Closed the door and be still, let peace enter your soul. Walk away if you can, respond differently, change your surroundings, speak up for yourself, do whatever it takes to move forward. You only have one chance at living, start making your own choices and live the life God intended for you to live. Start today!
Hello, I am wishing you all a beautiful inspiring week ahead.
I write, I hope, I dream, I inspire, I cultivate and nourish the life I’ve built. Succeeding is not an option because the work is already done. Improving, growing and learning is a must because I put the necessary work in to make it a reality. Never underestimate the pure power of hard work and dedication.

A Poetic Journey From Darkness To Light- Nikki Sterling
This book is very dear to me; it holds the precious words that I’ve kept hidden for years.
There’s truth, hope, healing, bravery, separation, heartbreak and love here Transformation is not pretty, healing is not attractive, its begging the tears not to spill in the school car line, it’s putting on your lipstick and smiling on the conference calls, it’s the prayingand the constant breaking every day that snatches the breath out of you.
On the good days you embrace the beauty of renewal, you remind yourself that you are stronger than the things that are trying to consume you. The first half of this book (Sackcloth) is a brutal journey through Sacrifice, Severed and Silence, and the second half of this book (Silk) is a celebration of Bravery, Love and Blessings.
Welcome to this space, rest a little, open these pages and let the power of words embrace you. This book is a conduit for every emotion that you try to drown in the dark pool of uncertainty. Know that your feelings are valid and it’s ok to open the door and welcome them in. Walk through your darkness unafraid, let your pain bear witness that you did not give up, that you did not nourish the space where discouragement live, that you welcome the light and set yourself on a path to healing, bound and embodied with the truth that you are not broken, you can self-generate the love you need to heal the deepest wounds.
