Someone I loved once gave me
a box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand
that this, too, was a gift.

My images & writings reflect my life experiences. My life has been full of adventure, joys & sorrows. I suffer from PTSD & Depression. It's a daily battle that few can relate to. Most of my blog will reflect my thoughts around pain & sorrow. It is my only way to express in writing what I am unable to verbally along with my personal philosophy. Images can speak louder than words & why I use them.
