She is having a rough time of it and as she is alone, she contemplates ending it all. As she begins, she has second thoughts and hesitates-- Instead of immediately doing it, she lies down and falls into a sleep.
In the morning, what will she do? Does she follow through?Does she decide to give it another go?
Is she awakened in the night with a phone call from a long lost lover who had been looking for her-- and their passion is renewed?
Does the mother who abandoned her as a child become clean and wants to start over - something that she has been praying and hoping for since she was that long ago child?
Live or die - A mystery, but perhaps one can look within and see the many choices- and know it can be better.
