This is a story about turning, the secrets it keeps and the regrets it holds. Turning around and walking away often means separation; An intensive fight usually gets us turn on our heel; A warm embrace inevitably turns into a confrontation of harsh reality; We say goodbye and leave our childhood behind as we turn adult; We farewell our parents and turn over a new leaf since the day we apart from our home; As we turn and step into the boarding gate, there is sadness of reluctance caught in the eye; The moment of breaking up with our beloved, we turn around and walk away with our heads up while tears in our eyes; In the end, we turn and leave the world behind. There are so many words unspoken at each turn. There are so many life-time separations in every turn. This is a story about turning, the secrets it keeps and the regrets it holds.
