Finding Light in the Cracks
Not all storms are meant to be weathered alone.
Beneath the Broken Sky isn’t just a title. It’s a reminder that even when everything feels
shattered, we’re not beyond repair. We are, in fact, built to survive the fall and find something
beautiful in the rubble.
This story is about heartbreak, hope, and the messy middle between the two. And if you’ve
ever felt like you were trying to glue yourself back together with nothing but coffee and a pep
talk, this one’s for you.
Heartbreak Isn't the End
Our main character didn’t sign up for a life detour. But like so many of us, she got one
anyway. Her world cracked open. Plans unraveled.
And in that moment of chaos, when the sky felt like it was falling? She kept breathing. She
got up. She moved forward.
Because heartbreak doesn’t have to be a full stop. Sometimes, it’s a comma. A pause. A
breath between chapters.
You Don’t Have to Be Whole to Be Worthy
One of the biggest lies we tell ourselves is that we have to be healed to be happy. That we
have to be unbroken to be loved.
But in Beneath the Broken Sky, the beauty comes in the becoming. In learning to live with the
cracks. In realizing that people can love you exactly as you are—not just despite your pain,
but sometimes because of the way you survived it.
You are not too much. You are not too late. You are not too broken.
Healing is Messy (and That’s Okay)
The journey in this book isn’t linear. There are tears, tantrums, tiny wins, and sudden
moments of joy that don’t make sense on paper. But they’re real.
And healing—real healing—is messy like that. It doesn’t look like a movie montage. It looks
like learning to laugh again. Trust again. Breathe without the weight of what happened
crushing your chest.
It’s slow. It’s tender. And it’s so, so brave.
A Note from the Sky
If you’re walking through your own storm right now, remember this:
You don’t have to fix it all today. You just have to show up. You just have to keep breathing.
Let the sky break. Let the light in. You’re not alone beneath it.
And maybe, just maybe, something beautiful is waiting on the other side.
Here’s wishing you a beautiful day—one where the coffee’s strong and the sky stays mostly
unbroken.
With love and courage,
Lucy
