Prologue

I want to express beautiful things. I also want to find beauty in the things around me. While contemplating what it means for a person to live, I want to focus on good, comforting, and beautiful things.
Sometimes, in the course of life, I feel the need to reset and make a fresh start. This work was created during a pivotal time in my life, infused with the various emotions I had at that moment.
