HORRIFYING REALITY



PC: Therese Fische

She spent all her life in a box. She thought it was cozy. Then one day she woke up to find the box blown away, tattered and disappearing over the horizon. The sky curved blue and violet over her head and she realized, for the first time, just how large it was. She wondered what she was going to do with all the free space the sky, suddenly so very exposed without the usual limits placed on it, afforded her. She felt lost in its wide expanse. Only then did she see that, all her life, she wasn't really cozy but caged. Freedom can be a horrifying reality to those who have remained slaves to the darkness.
