About a month ago I went up to Virginia Beach to visit my parents in their new house. Quite an interesting weekend that ended with me crying my eyes out for about 6 hours listening to John Legend's "All of Me" and waking up to a 30 degree temperature drop. If you have been following the blog then you know I am currently going through a separation in my marriage…..I'll admit…..there are good days and bad days. Sometimes you think you are totally fine and then the smallest thing sets you off into a dark place that you don't know if you will ever get out of. The next morning after my last emo fest I walked out on my parents dock (because the smell of salt water always helps relax me) only to discover it was FREEZING…luckily I picked up this parka from H&M the day before and threw it over the first items laying on the top of my suitcase and slid on my Valentino rockstuds….and wouldn't you know it actually turned into a pretty great outfit. Like I said in my last post, I may be a mess right now but at least I will never let you know that from the outside. The good news is things are on the upswing for several reasons and I'm incredibly thankful for all of the people in my life right now.

  2. I read a book once, that really struck a chord in my mind. It's called "Man's search for meaning". The principle is this: whatever bullshit you go through, whatever crap happens in your life, you can't change it, you can only change your reaction towards it. You can't control every stupid thing that happens, but you can control you reaction towards it. You can decide to wallow in despair and self pity or you can choose to stand up and move on. It's a great book, it really helped me with figuring out what the hell to do with my life! I know it may seem hard right now, but time will pass, and you're so young and beautiful, you're life is ahead of you ^_^
