And so they finally sit down together for dinner. Her parents know that at the end of winter she would go back to her cabin in the forest. Of course they hope that she would someday return to make her permanent home in the city, to live closer to them. But deep down in their hearts they know she is doing important work out there, and that she is happy.

Visiting my parents in Indonesia is always an emotional undertaking. To help me through it, my fiancee told me this story of a little girl who lives in the forest. She paints and draws the animals, the trees, and flowers, and that is her life’s work. Every winter, she cleans her brushes, packs her easels, her paints, and her pencils, draws the shutters down, and locks the little cabin she lives in, to go visit her parents in the city. 

This scene depicts her leaving the forest, suitcases in her hands as she begins her walk down to the busy, bustling city below.
