[close] > 💬 When hearts break, stories are born... In this group, we break the silence—not with noise, but with words. A safe space for anyone who’s ever felt unheard, anyone who’s ever written and wished someone would read. We share the books that touched us, talk about the experiences that shaped us, and breathe through our stories. ✨ The group welcomes fans of realistic fiction, emotional drama, and social storytelling. You’ll find deep discussions, book recommendations, and heartfelt conversations. The group is moderated by the author Zell Alhekaya – Sara Salem, writer of Broken Threads and After the Tempest, who shares behind-the-scenes moments, quotes, and glimpses into her writing journey. Join us… you may just find your voice where you once lost it. ✨ Feel free to invite kindred spirits who’d enjoy this space ❤

[close] This group is for anyone who is Death Positive, death doulas, end-of-life midwives, hospice workers/volunteers, and anyone who has ever or will ever experience a death (yes, that means YOU!). We encourage open, honest discussion about the one thing that we are all guaranteed in this life, Death. My hope is that we can dull the fears, and return the sacredness of death to our universal consciousness, to allow everyone to live their unique life to its fullest until their last exhale. "We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born The potential people who could have been here in my place But who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Sahara Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA So massively exceeds the set of actual people In the teeth of those stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here We privileged few, who won the lottery of birth against all odds How dare we whine at our inevitable return to that prior state From which the vast majority have never stirred?" -Richard Dawkins
