Every once in a while you come across something that physically stops you in your tracks.
Something that knocks the wind out of you.
Something that resonates with you.
I was playing on the internet today at lunch when I came across this Stefano Galuzzi photoshoot from the 2010 Spring/Summer issue of Grey magazine.
The model, the stunning Georgina Stojiljkovic, looks absolutely devastated.
Tortured.
Empty.
Alone.
These images depict exactly what I feel like every day.
My relationship with the love of my life ended on June 1st, 2010. With each passing day it becomes a little easier to move forward. To let go.
I continue to live my life. I work. I spend time with the people that love and care about me. I focus on the things that bring me joy.
But this is what I feel like.
Grief and emptiness…

I'm trying, I'm trying. One day at a time, as they say.
Thank you!
