The Lost Button

The Lost Button is about the importance of truth. Young Hildegard finds this out in a most unexpected way. In the north, amongst a very cold winter, Hilda and her sister visit their grandma and enjoy their time while learning a craft new to them. They find out that this craft involves many types of different buttons. Hilda loses track of one and dreads the possibilities of having lost one of grandmas beautiful buttons. Hilda goes through motions of worry, anxiety, stress, and a loss of appetite over her decision on hiding that she lost the button. She must decide whether or not truth is to be freed or to imprison it, enabling it to further harm her on the inside. A very important lesson has embarked on her path. A lesson we all learn as we grow and make the same choice, and not just once, but several times in our life in this place. The truth is a powerful instrument, and dangerous to our physical bodies to conceal, so the question then is, will you choose to free truth, or keep it hidden?
