Unrequited love, losing what might have been and visiting memories of what was; are frequently parts of our human experience. In 'I messaged My Ex', Field's moments are captured with a rawness that shares real insights to the feelings and internal tension in that 'stew of a process' and for many readers, a lens that they see their own experiences and journeys within.

'I messaged My Ex' walks through the 'stew of the process' with all the moments mentioned and more. While the pictures draw the reader to their own contemplation the process accelerates, moving from loss to releasing, accepting and turning from the past to futures unknown.

A book for anyone who has lost love, or for friends who are facing that journey, another Field book of facing yourself, being honest and facing forward.

From the Back Cover

Peter Jeffery OAM:
"As the sages say, 'All the world loves a lover' As Samuel Field is discovering, they love even more an 'unrequited lover', those who Leonard Cohen called the 'Beautiful Losers'.
Everyone has unrequited love of some nature. Samuel has worked his way through such, to a place where he is unbound and free to hope for the mutually shared as in Blake's 'What does he/she require? She/He needs the lineaments of gratified desire.'
Asked to review an earlier book BECOMING UNBROKEN, I was intrigued by his proposition
Pain Isn't chosen
Growth is
And that was anchored, as these books words are, in local clean imagery.
In I MESSAGED MY EX, I was wonderfully rewarded by the exciting journey as will other readers in a book worth having. It becomes a delight to see his breakthrough to personal calm. But further his marriage of text and photos takes a deep understanding of the intricacies that relationships require, hence the photos are as much symbolic as intellectually
arranged and selected.

His epitaph is hauntingly resolved.
Laying in bed
Nearly asleep
What's that noise?
What kind of ghost?
Sounding like you
Yet just the echo of memories
Reverbing in the stillness of my now!
And I invite you with your own unrequited love to join in a private but ever human journey"
Peter Jeffery OAM
