This short still baffles me. I believe the man placed the balloon to have something tangible and visible to have while his wife was gone. While the rest of the city did not have a clue why it was the, he new the real reason. I guess, when loved ones are gone we like to have something close by to remind of us them. So maybe the balloon is a symbol of filling the empty space that is left when someone we love is gone.
What do think?
