It blindsided her. Like she was t-boned in a hidden intersection on a foggy night. She was young at the time and never knew she even had it. A word she had heard many times before and never thought much of it. Something many people described as empty. The weird thing was she didn't know she had it until something she never had before, came into her life. For the first time ever she could say how she had a void in her life. She learned the true meaning of this word when she went on a family vacation to the sandy beaches of outer banks north carolina. She never knew the exhilarated relaxation the ocean had to offer. Being next to the salty water brought a whole new way of life she had quickly fell in love with. Most people are sad when they leave a vacation spot, but they quickly recover when they make it back home. She, on the other hand, was heart-broken. Not only was she heart-broken, she also left a peice of herself there on the ocean-kissed shore. Now seven years later she is able to make it back to where she will always call home. Hopefully one day she'll never have to feel the that painful void in her life ever again.
