A place of lonliness, anger and disappointment. And if we think about a child feeling abandoned & alone. You have to wonder why & who is allowing them to carry this burden.
There are different scenarios in being abandoned. Maybe an economic crises caused poverty & great loss. Maybe someone walked away from a relationship of any status. Maybe a parent deceased and the other survived but did not allow themselves or anyone else to heal. Maybe obligations were left behind without proper communication to who was still accountable. Maybe a friendship was never mended; for a historic amount of reasoning. Maybe a few to many disagreements turned into a final separation. Or maybe people just find themselves alone; because they refuse or cannot accept letting go of the old baggage they clutch on to carry.
Maybe families could not agree in unity. Maybe the world was filled with to many traveling bags seeking of joy while carrying burdens through generations. Therefore these bags never found a home to rest. So they were never unpacked before being abandoned.
