  Summary

  Hiraeth means "Nostalgia" or "Bittersweet Longing", and what is longing to a child that grew up in adults' wear? Do they long for their childhood, or are we too dense to see in their world after we've left ours? Well, don't fret. We can always look back, no matter how much it hurts us. For us, it's a chapter in a book that we had finally closed. Another year is another book, or another decade is another book. No one is to judge.

  A meadow is the least of our worries.

  Unless you forsake all that is beautiful.
