Raindrops on the Flower

The moment suffering ends is when the heart dies. Afterward, everything becomes still and stretches into eternity. Every year, Ying returns home to visit her mother, who has been troubled by old age after an accident. These exhausting days of caregiving are like water, sometimes boiling, sometimes serene, and sometimes still. When the last drop of rain falls on the withered flower, the sky brightens.
