Their shadows walked ahead
Tasting paths
Testing light
Traveling a step
Before
Their feet
Pressed footprints
And memories
Into sand.

Touching written. Imagining my life as a footprint in the soft sand of eternity, a strange feeling of transience creeps up on me. I love the scene in The Neverending Story of Michael Ende, where the old Fantastica was almost wholly lost. The Childlike Empress and Bastian were alone in the dark. And with them a single last luminous seed from which Peregrin emerged, the Night Forest and a new Fantastica. I prefer to see my life and its track as such a shining seed, as part of the elements that can become something new after me.
All the best to you

What a beautiful image, Laureen! 🙂 Thank you for sharing it and enriching the conversation about the elements that make reality in all its transience. 🙂 Na’ama
