Celia! This is soooo good! I’m not sure if you realize what you have here. If you wanted, I think you could treat this little short story as an outline and turn it into a full blown novel. I think it has huge potential.

Beautiful message and I loved the allusions too social media – it really is all just so toxic and false. Feeling the misery is sometimes, I think the only way to move forward.
ROCK replied 1 year, 11 months ago

I appreciate the edginess of truth and life; relatable angst!
River Joy replied 1 year, 11 months ago

thank you for speaking your truth here, agreed with Celia and Rock, sometimes the only way out is through (which is an aphorism that I dislike, but in a lot of cases it’s true)
