   What a beautiful photo, so full of emotion and hinting at all the world around you; the painting behind you, the computer in front, the sun streaming through the window and the delicate posture of grief. Really an amazing photo, Christina.

   It is lovely and very sad. I was freaked and started reading between the all lines in previous entries. Hope all is okay. xoxo

   Oh. This is beautiful. Why is sad always so beautiful?

   I wish like hell I could hug you right now. Or at least bring your chocolate.

    I think I’ve visited this sad place recently, too. It passes. Sometimes it just takes longer than you like. You can make it.

    My sister-in-law was working in a San Francisco law firm about 12 years ago when a disgruntled client walked in and starting a rampage. She and a colleague shoved a desk in front of the door and hid, waiting for the madness to subside. Thankfully, she and her colleague were not harmed physically, but I do know that counseling helped her tremendously…

    Peace,
    Michelle

    and yet you’re looking out the window maybe into a more peaceful future, that’s a good start.
    I agree with samantha about the chocolate,
    love,

    I love your little office and painting area. It’s so you. Sorry to see that you’re still blue. Okay, that rhymes. Sending good energy your way.
