I expect a bunch of mathematical and geometric convergences in this challenge. In the absence of getting a good picture of the Nexus, or Soran‘s attempt to enter it, I went with something a little more spiritual. Also, I really like blue.
This glass window above the transom at the Abbey Church at the Monastery of the Holy Spirit represents the challenge best. Stepping through the doors into a sacred space is a convergence, from the finite to the infinite, from the temporal to the eternal.
I love this old home. It has fallen into disrepair so the black and white is kinder to it. I love the angles, which to me represents a time when things were easier, straightforward. We knew who we were, what we wanted. Things were clear and in line.
The foundation, the lines, the angular pieces are still there, but look at the growth around it. The trees and foliage soften it, and together it makes a lovely picture.
This afternoon I went on an adventure in my hometown. I have a dear friend visiting, and she wanted to do a little sight-seeing, so off we went.
It is so delightful to go out in the community and see the same old sights with a new eye to detail. It was a gift to my friend to explore, but it was also a gift to me, to see with fresh eyes the beauty that is in my little town.
This fountain sits at a traffic circle. I drive around it every week, but today I saw the joy captured in a childhood scene. Children playing on the rocks probably ended their afternoon with a game of King of the Hill. The little boy at the top of the fountain earned his achievement for the day.
