INSPIRATION

I knew one day this will happen, but I didn’t know it comes so fast, so sudden, and during the most awful time, the pandemic. I could even not come back home to see her last time because of the pandemic, and I have never imagined that I won’t be with her when she is leaving.

I was stroke by the huge sorrow during that several days, it is hard to describe it through words, but when I recall those days now, it was like a unrealistic dream, and some memories were blurred and far away.

Though my grandma has left, I didn’t stop to think of it. I started to think of the meaning of death, and what it brings to the living people. I started to accept, and I started to feel that death is sorrow, but not cold. It is weird, now when I recall my grandma, I can not help tearing but there are also somewhere feels super warm in my heart. Because of love, death is not just death anymore, it is about saying goodbye and keep going with that love. I know it is hard to describe this abstract feeling, especially in English which is my second language, but I believe it could be show through the animation film, and this is also part of my theme---how to show abstract information such as a complex emotion through 2D animation.
