Hope
I remember talking to a friend and me telling her I sometimes like sad stories not necessarily with a happy ending, because such is often life, and then she asked me : - Why write about desperation and hard times if there's no hope in the end? I think this is what those 34 pages are- a tale of hope in times when it's very hard to be expectant for better days and wish for a happy ending. It's remarkable how such a short story managed to convey such a message and I'm glad I found it. |
