Can we go back?

If there is one thing this series has taught me, it is finding a way through moving away. Even when adulthood took away the freedom, genuineness, and willingness to love with purity, I still found the ability to begin again.

I learned that I could enjoy my childhood again, even now that I am grown. This piece pushed me to soften my heart, to embrace that childlike part of myself, and to simply see the world in colors.
