Last night, we watched the sweetest movie called The Ballad of Wallis Island. The movie is super slow (which I love), and the movie takes place by the ocean - so all the scenes are breathtaking. I won’t give away the plot, but I do have one favourite scene. New friends were sitting on the beach, and one of them brought paper lanterns. Each of them wrote their hopes and dreams on the paper lanterns, and then sent them off into the night sky. The lanterns slowly floated up, with the twinkly stars behind them, the sound of a crackling fire in the background.
I loved this, Sara, and can see it being part of something longer, a novel. The imagery it carries is so evocative and in such a short time you've already sketched characters.
That sounds like such a holy experience.

What a wonderful piece. Thank you for sharing.
Nobody plays my heart strings like you do. No need for a guitar. :)
Loved the story! Brought tears!
