    The following days found me feeling confused and lost. I was still grieving the losses of 2011 and now I was trying to cope with the realization of having to release Zach from my life. I missed my love and still had hope that we’d somehow find our way back to one another, but as the days passed, I just felt more lost and alone. Just as one door closed, another opened and my love decided to visit California. He said he just needed to get away for a couple of weeks and, of course he always seemed to come to California when he needs some time for himself. He split his time between Los Angeles and the Bay Area and despite not seeing him, I felt his love and it was good to have him home.

     I had so much going on inside of me that needed to come out and my outlet once again became my art. I received the proof for my second book, It’s Simply…GOLDEN: 75 Years of Inspiration and looked forward to publishing my work. It was good to be back in Sausalito. I was able to get out and promote my work with local business owners. I stopped by the shops on Bridgeway Boulevard and met with store owners about carrying my books in their shops. Everyone was so nice and supportive and I was excited about moving forward in my career as a new author. Being able to combine my passions of writing and photography had been such a blessing, especially during this time of transformation.

     Each day was a gift. Along with working on furthering my career, I continued to practice yoga and my relationship with Mathew was strong. He was a dear friend and kindred spirit. I was grateful for the practice. Mathew realized how important it was for me to have some sort of stability in my life with everything I had lost, and my yoga practice was just that. I wanted to keep my body strong and needed a space to calm my mind and sooth my soul.
