I just recently found out what it is that could comfort me or make me feel good in February in the Northern Hemisphere - that in the Southern Hemisphere autumn begins.
And no, it's not just this climatic knowledge, a presumption perhaps, which is in the textbooks. But that it is a fact this year as well. That it's happening this year too.
You know how the climate changes, how the seasons shift. But a photo of autumn on the other side of the world is comforting.
Not everything has changed. There is still something to cling to, to anchor, if you will.
One needs unchanging things to be grounded, somehow, one needs recurring events to not lose one's bearings in this complex and rapidly changing world. And the annual cycle of nature helps us in this.

Nowadays, this blog no longer exists, but I'm still here - passionate about architecture, art and mysteries and eager to share my discoveries and point of view with you. |
