We take our emotions for granted. Your story of the village left quite an impression. Enjoyed

Thank you so much. That’s exactly what I hoped it would stir up—that quiet realization of how easily we forget the weight of feeling. Without contrast, joy and sorrow both lose their meaning. It’s the presence of both that gives emotion its value. I’m really glad the story stayed with you.

This is such a different and wonderful outlook on your prompt. Where contrast is absent so is everything else. Contrast is what makes a human life worth living - love it xx
