Alyssa Griffin recently shared a deeply touching ‘That’s my why’ story on TikTok. The post highlighted how grief can shape a person. Griffin shared four photos that tell a story of love, loss, and the incredible partner she has found in her life today. The first photo shows her with her late husband, Jonathan Sales. She added the on-screen text, “He passed away at 26 years old. One of the last things he bought from the grocery store was rice pilaf which I still have.”
The second photo introduces her current boyfriend, Gregory Gisolfi, and notes that the two recently moved into a new home. The third image is the box of rice pilaf, rolled in bubble wrap. She wrote, “When I unpacked the rice pilaf (the one my husband bought years ago). Greg has meticulously wrapped it in a bubble wrap so it wouldn’t get damaged in the move.” The final photo shows a glimpse of their home with the caption, “That’s my why.”
