A Healing Heart

 Healing a heart from a loss so great isn't easy. I wonder sometimes, does he see me? Would he be proud of me? Am I doing the right thing? The things I do most now are work on the business, love on Blake, and star into space. How long does it take to heal this heart? Death is so final. A chapter in my life's book I didn't ask for but am dealt with the best I can.

I don't know what I'm doing, I'm just...zombie-ing my way through it. One day, I hope the ache stops, I hope the pain subsides. They say one day at a time, it's been more than 365 days now, how long does this last...

Turn Your Broken Heart into Art

 "Turn Your Broken Heart into Art" a quote from the late Princess Laya from Star wars. This is what I'm doing now. I know I've been spending a little less time in SL. The truth is I've ventured out and started a business in Rl. I don't know how it will go. I'm not afraid, I just know I need to do something with all the grief I have inside. I don't want to be destructive; I don't want to have a midlife crisis. That seems to happen a lot in my family when someone dies, they get bitter, they get angry and they get selfish. I don't want any of that. I'm not angry, I'm not bitter, and selfish wouldn't help. 

I just miss my dad.

The News of Home

 

The news of home, home as in RL is that he's gone. My dad has left this earth, and I'll never see him again. Never again hear his voice, his encouragement, his laugh. I've been a zombie for the past few months. Being Miss Azul and being Blake's wife has been the only happiness I've had. 

There are just no words to describe what he meant to me.

Feeling Beautiful in -AZUL- Electra

-AZUL- Electra

A dazzling creation from Mami Jewell of -AZUL-. The Electra gown, designed for ChloeElectra Resident, the short front and extended train is fun flirty and sexy. this gown is all mesh! I mixed in the sleeves from -AZUL-SHINO in Ruby. to add that whimsical flair. The shoes are nude which I love, and gives that long legged look. I'm in love with this gown! It's just as beautiful as it's creator and it's name sake.
