Chapter 2
Back in January 2020, seven months ago, to be precise, Grace’s fiancé had abandoned her at the ALTAR, of all places for a man to dump you!
The photographer at the ceremony had heard that Grace was leaving Krakow for America! He had felt so bad for Grace that he just had to give her a present before she leaves.
He met with her and gave her the picture of how deeply SAD she looked on what would have been her wedding day. Not to make her feel worse about herself or the humiliating event of everyone seeing that Doofus Asswipe, the 3rd, never showed up to marry her!
Don’t ask me! According to Grace, the ex-fiancé’s name is Doofus Asswipe, the 3rd! I thought it was a bit strange, myself. And wondered if she’d given him that name because that’s what she thinks of him now; that he’s a doofus and an ass wipe for what he did to her. Or, if she is so private that she would reserve his real name in America? Look, all I know is that I’m only relaying what Grace had told me about her life and herself! …AND what a SCANDULOUS event that was, at the church; with everyone wanting to know WHY Doofus did this to her, and pulling at Grace to inform them, the Nosy-Bodies, as if she herself even knew the answer!
The photographer simply wanted Grace to draw strength from that experience. For, as he put it: ‘through great suffering…comes enlightenment!’ Grace LOVED the portrait, and the empowering thought behind it, and affirmed that it was time for new beginnings for Grace!
She arrived in America and looked to becoming a prolific writer; so that she could SHRED Doofus to pieces, Globally, —but in the most eloquent of ways, of course! This is her “Home Office.” I helped her decorate it!
