Marie

Warm summer mornings in the fields
The sound of birds singing at dawn
Freshly baked bread
Quiet evenings by the fireplace
Weaving flower crowns
Helping animals and taking care of them
Listening to folk stories from elders

Loud and crowded places
Cold and harsh winters
Being the center of attention
Dishonesty and arrogance
Wasting food
Heavy storms

The scent of fresh hay
Singing while working
Watching the stars at night
Feeling the warm earth under her bare feet
The peaceful rhythm of village life

Being mocked or judged
Seeing animals mistreated
Feeling helpless or uneducated
Betrayal and broken promises
