This is a story about an amazing woman, It is not a normal story, It is an outstanding story which you may not believe. I can assure you that the story I am about to tell is real.
ReplyDeleteThe girl in the video is Sophie Turk, she had a happy childhood, until one terrible day, her mother killed herself and her father dissapeared, Sophie did not have any grandparents or relatives she knew, she always had the best grades at school and her classmates hated her. She was only 15 and lonely in the world, she did not find satisfaction in anything, she could not study, she could not find a job and of course she did not want to find a man.Th e only friend she had was a voice in her head, this voice spoke her all day long, sometimes she thought she was crazy but It did not matter, she did not care, the voice was her only Company although most of the time she did crazy things because of her uncommon friend. Sophie tried drugs for the fisrt time at the age of 16, and some time later she did it almost every day, she had found some new Friends, the drugs.
When Sophie Turk woke up one day, she did not know where she was, she could not remember anything, It took her about an hour to realice who she was and what she had done, she was now an important employee in one of the best design companies in France, She was the most intelligent person in her job and no one could make better designs tan her, her imagination was unbelievable, all the colors and forms that she created seemed from another world. There was one problem, because of sophie’s adiction she sometimes had damages in her short and long term memory, she often woke up and could not remember anything from the past but she did not quit drugs,
With the pass of time Sophie’s health got worse, she kept doing her job ok, because of her incredible imagination but now she had some attacks, the doctor told her that she was schizophrenic, she lived in a paralel world painted by herself, he saw amazing shapes and colors everywhere, she did not know what was reality anymore, because of this, she decided to find a man, a couple to help her, but she could not talk to men easily, she found a way, everyday she went to the top of a building and looked down, then she threw a shoe and one man thought that she was going to commit suicide, It was her way of meeting men, after this she fell in love with the man, and she thought he was the one, however, the men that she met did not want to date her, they tried to avoid her, but there was another thing that drugs and schizophrenia had given to sophie,Synesthesia, Sophie could hear the colors and the images, she could touch and see the sounds, and even taste music and forms, when the men ran away from her she imagined something totally different in the world inside her head, It was like a videogame, the smell of the man tod her that she had to chase him and love him until they could be together, she did not understand that they did not like her, her mind created a fantastic reality, with the most brilliant color that you can imagine. She quit her job, everyday she woke up and saw a note in the night table, a note that se had written and reminded her all about her condition, the schizophrenia, the synesthesis and the pursuit of men, everyday she had the same plan in the same building.
Unfortunately, as you can imagine, Sophie did not find a couple, she got used to her routine, and even when the man liked sophie, she tought that It was better to keep with her daily job and meet new men with different colors, and scents, and different stories that kept her mind amazed.
Sophie did this for about ten years until one day her heart and brain said no more. Sophie died at the age of thirty having dated more than 5.000 men, but she never even kissed one of them.

This is the story of a lonely woman who due to their problems taking wrong decisions.
ReplyDeleteMaria the protagonist of this story lived the most terrible things a woman can live, she stayed very small orphan and had to cope alone, unfortunately, she did not know how to handle this situation and was isolated so that she was losing their jobs they could not work together, not talking to anyone, and entered a period of depression. Maria started to imagine things and she didn´t feel very well due to his loneliness. She took the decision to change their situation and entered into a support group, she saw this as a way to change your life and find a partner who will relieve your pain.
Unfortunately, she can not get to make friends and every day after leaving his wing ascended therapy roof of the building and looked down dropping his wing shoe waiting for a man to pick it up and go up to prevent the launch. She made him well for men and into their lives. She did many times but none of them worked. This situation led to an increase in her frustration and hatred and so really wanted to end his life. But, one day hear deep down her head a thought that invited her to walk to see the world, and also realize that the only thing missing was making the decision to live if bondage, free and happy.
Maria walks today watching how beautiful the world and reflecting the calm, now has a partner who makes me laugh and Maria says that almost touches the stars.
The story begins with an unusual way used for a woman to call people’s attention, specifically to call men’s attention in order to get a partner. She is stood on the top of a building and tries to commit suicide. Here we can think in the adage “in love and war all is fair”. It is probably that her audacity functions to her, but it is neccessary to look at the deepness of her feelings and emotions for the alleged victim goes into the chemistry of this fantasy. For all those people who watch the video and read this story, please do not try it at home, with many current dangers that we have, why look for more?
ReplyDeleteShe is surely an alone person. She is around 35 years old and probably has a job, a job not as good as she wanted in her youth, because any of her expectations came truth. She has not good luck with men. She tried everything to get a partner in her youth, but nothing went as she wanted. Some years ago, she tried through internet, with blind dates, by advertising, but nothing worked. Finally, she got tired of the routine and solitude and thought of a riskier way, but perhaps more effective to get a mate. Every day she went to the top of a building and made men think she went to commit suicide. She throws a shoe to be more convincing. She did this feat so many times until she was arrested by public scandal.
If this woman shows us her emotional imbalance, she also shows us the bold and daring ways that we humans beings use, to get the things we want. Of course this woman does not hurt anyone compared to other acts that lead to shame. Here she teaches us a complex, bold, striking and full of adrenaline form of inspiration.

ReplyDeleteThis is the story of Natasha who was one night very Deep in her sleep, when she saw herself into her dream trying to jumping off a known building in the street besides the neighborhood she’s living. So then, she could feel that a very handsome guy don’t let her falling down, but when she try to grab him hardly wakes up soaked in sweat.
ReplyDeleteThe next morning she start to watch tv drinking a cup of coffee, then she heard a phrase that she couldn’t forget along the day “You can make your dreams real”, So she thought her dreams was more like sign and the man of his dreams of her life was standing right there at the edge of the death saving her from a fatal destiny.
Natasha took a shower and with a strong determination wears her blue t-shirt, and very fast got at the top of the same building and when she was about to jump, throw accidentally her shoe calling Daniel’s attention, who came upstairs in seconds avoiding she kill herself. she was left thinking against void, she herself questions with a question "because I feel more real when I dream when I'm awake, and I know if my senses lie to me" Natasha was distraught his strong heart was beating, I was looking for a signal that made her feel alive for not falling into that void his own mind had to crawl to the cast. His denial of reality has led to that point.
Daniel was the pill that she needed to choose their reality and make it better was the one who gave meaning to the heart and mind starting from there everything changed and reborn.
Natasha understand that she had to be cautious standing among the reality and dreams, she already know what is the real value of the thinks, and when she finally understood the maze of her head, Daniel fell deeply in love, because he saw a human being reborn into an angel.
3. Introduction: Natasha had a dream that interpreted as an advertising of her awareness to overcome an attitude that she can’t deal with, and try to live this dream looking for answers.
Body: She starts to live her dream and unexpectedly the answers she was looking for appears in the different way as she had dream in the night.
Conclusion: We can’t expect to live our lives trying to finding answers outside, maybe the thing you live will give you the solution of your difficulties, and if you thrust in yourself you don’t have anything to worry about.
Once upon a time there was a princess wholived in an appartement with her mother, the Queen. Te princess's name was Christina, she was King Samuel's daugther, Samuel was the USA's king but when he died the Queen and Christina had to leave the castle because they had no money and without the King or a king's son the United States had to start a democracy.
ReplyDeleteFor Christina and her motherthat was a terrible end, but their lives haven't ended, Christina's life was just starting.
Chistina grew up thinking and believing all the fairy tales her father used to read yo her, but she was fat and there wasn't fat princesses in the fairy tales, then she realised she was not good enough to be a real princess, that was the reason she stopped eating and she started to have health problems until her mother brought her to rehabilitation, she stood there for a few years, when she went out fron rehab she was not fat anymore and she was healthy, but there was another problem, she realised she could not be a single princess, she had to look for her one true love, after a year of searching for the love of her life she gave up, and she tried to make a plan to find the prince faster, she said that the man she wanted to have had to be a savior, someone who could be there for her in the worst moments, so she stood everyday in the top of the New York's higher building waiting for her savior to pass by, the problem was that in the fairy tales all men were perfect and she didn't know that this was real life, so every man she knew had a defect and she wasn't completely happy, and everyday after a break up with avery prince she started her plan again.
Finally she was never able to find her one true love and she died alone, she never realised how the pressure of society ruined her life, fairy tales gave her a wrong expectation of what really life is.
SCHIZOPHRENIA:
ReplyDeleteShe woke up of a bad dream, the third one that week, again she felt curious about the meaning of that, what does it mean? She asked herself oftenly, in her dream she was jumping out of a bridge wearing a long withe dress but she was sure of something: deep in her heart she was peaceful. Alana has had a good life, even if she was alone, she felt confidence, but the idea of jumping out of a bridge did not seem insane to her. she lived in an aparment with her cat –Simona- (her only family). During the day Alana used to get up early in order to arrive to work, everyday after drinking her second cup of coffe, she used to take the same path exactly at 7:15 am to get to the ballet school, where she taught.
Alana started to feel breeze in her face and calm in her heart, and suddently she woke up, once again her dream was chasing her without reach her, she saw her watch – 4:00 am – she tried to sleep again but that was imposible, so she decided to get up earlier that morning, doing the usual: preparing coffe and giving food to her cat, then she went out taking other path without notice it.
Walking aimlessly she arrived to her dream bridge, then she saw a Young woman wearing a withe dress, just like in her dream, but this was different, that woman was not her! And this time she was sure she was awake, Alana saw this woman with love, as if she knew her, but this was not true, she had never seen this woman in her entire life, but she loved her, deep in her heart she knew it, the woman jumped, she was falling fast, the Young woman was dead. Alana ran to her, she took her in her arms and kissed the dead woman with her entire love. A man that was driving in that road stopped the car, he saw Alana in a strange way and asked her: -why do you cry?- Alana said: the love of my life is dead, He looked around and the only unusual thing he noticed was a teddy bear she was holding in her arms.
This is the story of Brenda Wood
ReplyDeleteBrenda is 36 years old and she is still alone, she doesn’t have a partner.
When she was 8 years her dad died in an accident and since that moment she has tried to fill that empty space in her life but she hasn’t gotten it. Nowadays she thinks that her life is a complete disaster because she never had a good childhood, not even in her youth she was happy. She was always shy at the moment of interacting with boys and that’s why she has never had a boyfriend, but now she has decided to do everything possible to get one.
It’s San Valentine’s Day and Brenda is going crazy. ‘’ I need a man! I don’t care how I can get it, I just need one now, I’ve been alone too much time’’ she said. In that moment she left her house and went to the downtown in order to get a love chance. While she was walking into the streets she saw all the happy couples celebrating. All of them seemed to be in love so Brenda felt too sad. ‘’ I can’t support anymore, I’ll kill myself!, wait! Yes!!! Why not to try a risky act? It could work.’’ She said. So, she quickly went to the top of a building and began to watch the men who were passing into streets. After that, she threw one of her shoes to disguise the fact that she would commit a suicide. A man saw her, and he arrived to the top of the building as fast as he could. He achieved to persuade her to save her life and then he invited her to take a coffee. Brenda finally was happy, bust just for a moment. She thought that the man liked her but it wasn’t true because he actually wanted to save her life. She could not understand that, otherwise she pursued him for a long way until the man became angry with her.
Brenda keeps trying to do this every day until she gets her love, she could not realized the stupid things that she is doing because she is mad, she is really mad.
Have you ever heard of misogynists? Yes, they exist and they walk among us. Terry is one of them, he hates women and how they-in his opinion- do nothing but whine and hold mankind back from its full potencial. He was brought up in a class-working family; as the only child he was kind of spoiled growing up, by his father mostly. His mother got sick after she gave birth to him and wasn't able to have more children; Terry thinks she resented him for that, but he didn't give a damn about she thought because, as his father used to say, women are just thoughtless beings meant to carry the children and please men.
ReplyDeleteAhh his father, terry and him used to have such a good relationship when the former was a kid, unfortunately, when Terry hit puberty he came to the realisation that he was homosexual. Once his father found out there was no going back. Gone were the loving hugs and weekly talks about sports. "If you want to be fucked like a woman, then you might as well be treated like one!" used to yell his father at him, while he beat him with the belt and he looked hopeless at his uncaring mother as she returned his glance from the doorway.
That's how Terry came to be the conflicted, young man he is today. He disguises himself by dressing up as a woman, because he thinks he won't be able to find a roantic partner otherwise. "You're 27 and you've never had a real connection with someone. Do you really wanna die alone? C'mon, you can do this" Terry reminds himself everyday, as he puts on his feminine clothes; his small complexion helps. "What men want is a needy damsel in distress that they can save and fawn over, right? I can be that for them" whispers Terry as once again, he stands on top of the old brick building; waiting for that special someone that will love him, save him from his mind and feed his obsessive self.
This is the story of a man who in his youth he used to give serenade to his beloved, they had so much affection between them like couple, that they decided to share all their life together ; they bought a beautiful house in the city and decided to live together as all couples that swear eternal love to each other’s , but as in any relationship is not all happiness, the problems started and suddenly the relationship got worse , he didn’t know what to do to save this beauty relation, and that was always his problem because he was very shy in relationships , so for lack of personality they decided to take different ways.
ReplyDeletetwo years had passed, he was walking down the street and he saw a shoe that fell down in the street from a building , he raised his eyes when he realized that there was a desperate woman trying to suicide herself , straight away he feels the need to save her life, the woman who truly doesn’t wanted to suicide herself because it was her strategy to attract the attention of this shy man, when he “saved her life”, he thought that it could be possible to make a relationship with that ruthless woman who really hadn’t had much luck in love, this great man suddenly realized that this woman just used that strategy to attract his attention, so, he decided to do nothing , and he leaved that place, but she didn’t want to turn away and she followed him ; he , who never had the best luck with his ex-couple, he realized that the woman that he “saved” was just using him.
At the end of all this complicate meeting he chose to ignore that woman; she realizes that he doesn’t want to have anything with her, and decided to return to the place where she always used the strategy of suicide herself to wait for a man who wants to be with her, but unfortunately she kept doing this for many years, until the day that she thought in that time where there was the only man who really had loved her had suicide himself because she didn’t offered him the love that he really wanted, and she realized that she will never find a real love.

WRONG LOVE
ReplyDeleteThe day follows in the noisy city, each person in their daily comings and goings, and Teresa is into a nasty routine. In the relationship of Charles and Teresa things are not right, after living together for three years and they are separated. But it was just the following year that Teresa sought in many ways remain the spotlight Carlos After many threats Teresa ate many pills and Carlos ran to hear the doctors tell him that she had saved. But Carlos was upset about the situation because he wants to be with other people, but Teresa insists without result, now she tries in a bathtub be electrocuted; but it is another way that Carlos asks for her.
Carlos thinks it is not good to be with someone who doesn’t love, he believes that both really deserve a relationship where they have real feelings and not where they are forced to sleep and wake up to who they don’t love.
Few people look up when they are running in their own lives. Teresa doesn’t want to accept reality, so she feels awful and she has a new plan: hunting a man attracting his attention by forcing, compel him to love her, but she does not know who is he, and now Teresa seeks attention desperately in others, is on a building and dropped one of her shoes, and a man who is passing by finds the shoe and he comes up to help her, after a act of kindness from him, she wants him to stay next to her but he is a married man and insists that she let him go, he loves someone else.
Every day after a crazy, intense and insistent thing is made by Teresa. She thinks that herself need this kind of acts, she believes that this is the beginning of love.
ALICE LOWELL
ReplyDeleteTo walk along the life without feeling dear or wished, it is for many women to be died in life. So much, that are capable of committing madness on not having obtained what they wish: love. It is what happened to Alice Lowell.
One day in March, when even the cool evening breeze felt, Alice was sitting to the top of the building. She was looking towards the sky. She always used to do. She stayed there for hours. For her it was increasingly difficult to continue her life without some person. She had never had an easy life. She had had many relationships, but it had never worked. Her mother was saying to her constantly: “You were not born to be loved” And these words always hanging around her head, specially that day, March 18th. The day where her relationships ended. In an instant she looked down and thought about changing history which until then repeated. She threw her shoe to the street and stood; hoping for some man could realize her and decided to be going to look her. And so it happened. He hugged her and he invited her to take a coffee. And after talking a while, he came and went out. She followed him. After various efforts to seduce him, she knew that he just wanted to help. Not more. Desperate, she ran back to the top of the building. She looked down and she saw a man. She thought: “What happen if I am wrong again?”… Maybe it was her last though and she fell.
Her story would not have been the same, because the man, who was passing by, was a young man who Alice had seen a few days earlier. He had not been able to approach to her; he was just looking for an opportunity to speak. Alice, for her part, she is not gave it the last opportunity.
