The Difference Between Love That Heals and Love That Hurts
Not all love is the same. Some love feels like coming home — safe, steady, calm. Other love feels like fire — consuming, chaotic, impossible to hold for too long without getting burned.

When The Heart Remembers
Amongst the whispering ocean and gentle pace of life in a small Maine coastal town, Anna Clarke lived as a quiet strength and a gentle smile made her stand out as a school teacher. Every day was calm, straightforward and was built around books, the jokes of her kids and the light scent of sea salt. Things had not always been peaceful at the time.
