If this was a perfect world our children would all be safe but it will never be safe, we can try to make it better though through making our life better and sharing it with others. I wrote this story for others who may be lost and feeling empty. There are processes one can go through just like creating art to help fill the empty void caused by trauma. The meditation painting with the snake and the skull is symbolic for knowledge represented by the snake called the Naga and the skull which represent wisdom, knowledge that phenomena is always changing and there is no self in that changing, it makes it easier to let go of pain understanding that grasping and trying to hold onto what always is changing is the cause of our suffering.

You're absolutely right. I had what I would term a normal childhood, but on reading so many stories, mine seems anything but. I can feel your art. Maybe all that are able to need to create safe spaces around ourselves.
