There is something I have often found with writing (and I have been published with it though for nugatory fees I gave to charity)and that is that really you do not have to use lots of words to make an impact.
I have written stories, on here, of exactly 60 words. That can take a lot more time than 1,000. It takes dsicipline as every word has got to serve a valid purpose or be dropped on the cutting room floor. I have even written a 60 word (again exactly) story placed on my portfolio here: Journey which is one 60 word sentence.
Inevitably this comment will be longer than your sentence. But:
1) I admire your bravery;
2) One sentence can say more than many. Yours does. At times there can too much noise and complication in many; and
3) Its message for me (you are talking to me, us all one at a time)? Time is short. There is so much to say, to feel, to express within the limits prescribed by our mortality. And yes it does ache, that we are so confined.
A personal well done.
I look forward to reading more.
My little take and comments, such as they are worth.
