 sad story i guess. haha. her dead husband/boyfriend/fiance...the only bracelet he ever bought her...the only letter she had left after the fire..(what fire? who knows, but it seems to make letters appear way more depressing)

Hey Kari Ann! this is great! it tells such a story. hopefully you arent doing too bad. If you recent posts on your profile and this has anything to do with your private life, I hope you get better. Good luck! :) I hope to see this in top 10.

I like the photos. I almost wish it didn't have a title (or a more ambiguous title) because it completely changed the meaning for me and i like it less. Still i am going to vote how i felt about it before the title. Sometimes too little is better than too much.
