The Reading Rock

A successful professional woman reconnects with a man from her youth through a twist of fate. This unexpected connection to her happy childhood prompts her to consider how her life has come to be what it is today and she wonders what became of those idyllic and innocent times. Her childhood friend has his own story, one that has left him sadly unfulfilled, and though worlds apart now, the fortunes of chance draw the two inexorably toward each other. Returning separately to the town they grew up in, they meet and talk over old times in an intimate surrounding. Helping each other to answer the difficult questions they harbor regarding their identities, and putting to rest nagging doubts concerning certain ignominious childhood events, a healing begins for them both. They become restored and refreshed and foresee their lives changing in the future as it stretches out welcoming before them.
