I see what you are saying, and perhaps for some it is that way, but I
don't think it is that simple for me. Moving on isn't bad, neither is
recovering. Fact is that sometimes there is little we can do, or are
able to do, due to our own circumstances, that does not mean we don't
care or that we forget.
Perhaps some do see that american dream that there is always a happy
ending, but I sure don't see that. I don't believe in happy endings.
I believe happiness comes in the small things in life, the moments of
contentment.
I am curious as to what you will include in the art piece.
