Portobello morning, Edinburgh
Q: What is a lover of minimalist architecture like me really drawn to?
A: Space and light and shadow. Space to be, and light and dark’s revealing. Place and space in which to breathe – life’s invitation to become the architect of our own life-giving, life-directing inner space.
Q: What is a beach lover like me really drawn to?
A: All of the above – with the addition of invitation to return again and again to ponder on ever-changing reflections, and be blown and filled and washed with gratitude – for the governing tides of time that are the ‘housekeepers’ of our sands …
These swimmers will have clearer heads and hearts and minds by the time they’re back on land. And I walk home slowly, clearer too, the same but different. I know I’ll soon return to this ‘space to be’ which is, moment by moment, the same but – yes! – different …
Those cloudscapes are breathtaking, Simon! Looks like your creative senses took flight in that lovely breeze. And that little toy firetruck? Adorable! xx
Thanks Lori. The little firetruck touched me. I hope it finds its way back to its owner – maybe some kind soul placed it on the wall hoping so too. Some years ago, when one of our grandchildren was very small, we used to carry a small Thomas the Tank Engine with us wherever we travelled – and would send back photos of the little engine’s travels with us (or ours with him!) xx
Oh how I love the story of your ‘wandering Thomas,’ Simon. Your grandchild must have been delighted….🥰 xx
