it was a wednesday when i walked into my therapist's office just like i did every week i gave her a letter because once again i couldn't say what was going on i watched her read the words i had written way past midnight the night before i felt weirdly distant from myself hoping and fearing at the same time that she would understand what i wrote i will forever remember the look in her eyes when she looked up and said the words that changed the course of my life when she said "i cannot let you go home" i wish i could say - my story with depression raw, emotional, and dark, but nevertheless hopeful

Josephine has an easy-going relationship with her boyfriend, Luke. But after witnessing her parents' divorce, and as Luke starts to advance in his career an artist, Josephine is forced to contend with challenges growing in her own relationship. By examining a failed marriage, as well as through exploring complex topics of gender in art, the author - through Josephine - challenges set perceptions of relationships and problem resolution. No relationship is easy, and not every person is exactly how they seem. Sometimes it takes a long time to realise the bad, and longer still to rediscover the good on the other side. It's through empathy that we can begin to better understand one another, overcome our pain, and begin to restrengthen the bonds that once connected us.

Made for all those freezing little lifes with a broken, empty heart to be healed and inspired to find their purpose and own place again in the precious connections they make, rather with special souls, nature or finally with themselves. Because this is what he always wanted to show us. And he still does it. He will always do: "Suddenly, there was a stranger in my nightmares. Someone I had never met in my life at that time.
