Sometimes we need to scream out our anger. We need to ball it up inside of us and let it explode as a cry or as a yell, muffled by a pillow or out loud. All that drama and frustration that has happened to us over the past week or month has been building up inside of us like a shaken soda bottle. To clean out our system, we have to open that bottle and have it poured out. It is dangerous to bottle things inside ourselves, but most of us try to repress it and keep it to ourselves.
Sometimes, we need a little help getting that angst out. A small rub on the back from a love one or some kind words as we are near the edge of breaking down keeps us stable. We know that someone is there that will catch us when we fall and help us clean up after our spill, which makes our release easier.

There are times when your pieces really touch me and this is one of those that gets me a little throat-lumpy considering all the stresses and stuff everyone has these days. It's easy enough ti hide stuff from people to start with but it sours after a while and you have to get rid of it be it into a pillow, in the shower, on a treadmill or anyway we can. Your message is a strong one and a true one, people help untangle all that stress and they help uncork that bottle before it gets too full to.
The background isn't overly complicated but it helps set up the private scene - the reflection in the window (i presume, rather than a mirror) is a good touch to show the hand on the back from another angle. The position of the characters works well and, as always, their expressions convey a real sense of depth in the piece. Another really great job and a really strong emotional piece.

Well, it's quite funny..
A few minutes ago i call a friend of mine, my ex girlfriend, well at least she's my one and only, but it seems to be that she don't love me so we wont get together again. I really felt disappointed and sad, so i open up FurAffinity, hoping to find some new piece of work by you. When i saw this pic first, i felt like: "whoot? did he hear my thoughts?"
Reading the text below, i notice that it describes kinda what i feel right now and what i need.. a small hug or stuff, a shoulder to put your head down and cry.. let it all out.
And this is why i really enjoy your art It always get me touched.. let me think about things, expresses my sadness or keeps my smiling
So yay: THX an keep going *hug*
