by Wendi White On May 30, 2004, I was taught a hard lesson in life that brought a whole world of "small beauties" into the picture. My boyfriend and best friend, Brian Street took his own life unexpectedly in the wee hours of May 30th. Being that I had already experienced a history of depression and anxiety, this one really hit hard. I waited all day for Brian to come home. I had a letter written for him that I really needed to share with him so I was anticipating the outcome all day at work. Around 7 p.m. I got the dreaded phone call that something was seriously wrong and that I need to get over to his parents how ASAP!! I asked what happened and all they could tell me was that Brian was in an accident. I soon found out the Brian had hung himself in his parents home. This struck a lot of emotions inside, one of which was relief because I knew that he was struggling inside with his thoughts was difficult. I was relieved to know that his suffering was over, but that was only the initial shock. For days to come I experienced what they call the "shock" of the situation. I guess the mind gives us this cushion so we don't have to take it in all at once. The "shock" stage was all pretty much one big blur that lasted about a month. You couldn't ask me what day it was because it all seemed to be one very long day. Once the shock wore off I was faced with the fact that the one person I came home to everyday and confided in was gone forever. Having a history of depression, I did my best to keep myself out of that dark hole that consumes us, but it wasn't an easy task to get to where I am today. I struggled with the thought of wanting to be with Brian, wanting to just end it myself so I could show my devotion to Brian. Everything was terrible and it seemed the world was out to get me. I felt a lot of guilt from this because of being the one person that he spendt the most time with, I thought for sure it was my fault that he felt the way he did. I have learned that the problems that Brian had were not brought on in the years that I knew him, that he had been facing them for a long time. When we had the funeral for Brian, his parents asked that I bring over any pictures of Brian that I might have. Being that I had gotten a new digital camera the Christmas before, it just so happened that I had a few. While getting the pictures ready I realized that all these pictures that I thought were too much, were now not enough. We all talked about how we needed to start taking more pictures of each other so we have the memories to hold. I guess I took it to heart a little more than everyone else. In January of 2005, I went out and bought a better camera. I decided that pictures are the only thing to keep the memories fresh and vivid. Since you can only take so many pictures of a person in one standing, I started finding other things. With this I found that the "small beauties" were somewhat therapeutic to me. Snapping a simple shot of a flower brought this very comfortable warm feeling inside that I just couldn't get enough of. I was told the best way to start out and learn was to just take a lot of pictures, so I did just that! I started taking pictures of whatever I could find. Random objects and certain sceneries were what got me started. So, I guess you can say that I was inspired by the loss of a loved one. The unbearable feeling that you can't change the past can consume you. Finding things that inspire you and make your heart flutter are worth holding onto. Taking self evaluations and asking yourself "what can I do for MYSELF?" is the best thing you can do. Keeping in touch with myself and thinking outside of the box has helped me overcome my loss and find happiness in things that I never saw before.
