    You know…when I think of crumbs, I envision our souls being turned into crumbs. I wonder how that would look like in a metaphor?

    Excellent.

    That was simple but powerful, darling. I loved that you broke it up into small, bite-size pieces.

    I think it depends to who you give your crumbs that truly matter~they either see it as a banquet of fat things or chaff, but it’s the other who decides.

    I read depth and profoundness in these simple words.
