Frames intact
“What do you see?”
He took the picture and examined it.
“Destruction”.
“Why?” she pressed.
“Just look at the ruins on the floor. The crumbled wall, the pieces apart. Broken fragments of what they once were.”
“What do you think that represents?”
“Human relationships”, he uttered. “They break in an instant and it’s both frightening and tragic that someone you once couldn’t imagine your life without can become a complete stranger”.
He pushed away a tear.
“But look closer. Don’t you see the frame lying almost intact? It’s simply upside-down but unscratched. Life is what we chose to focus on”.
