What a touching opening this is! Full of both pathos and hope as we follow the start of the journey of our protagonist: the elderly and lonely Missy!
This is a opening that, from its opening line, delivers an understanding of the acute pain caused by loneliness and isolation as Missy continues to embark on her life, without a husband or her children active in her life.
Underneath, however, there is the glimmer of hope for Missy - will this episode in the park be the start of something new for her? Friends? Community? A new start? I, for one, hope so!
