And I have the first story… The initial name is “Benches”
it is very simple – one thought in fact. Well - as I wanted, actually! It is about our Heart and some people, with whom we share our hearts (friends, soul-mates and the other nice or important for us persons). The Idea is like this – our soul I see as an endless field with the high grass (for me-it is wheat), on the shore of the river (it could be an allegory for time).We are sitting on the shore – looking at the river – living our life. But we are not alone – there are so many creatures -watching the river too. For some of them we have special places in our soul-field, only for them… We build a Bench (figuratively) for that person – and from now on that place in our Heart is somehow shared – it is not only “My” but more - it is “His” (Her) as well. When he is near – he sits there on the Bench with us and we face the river flow down, together… When he is not there -we feel empty, sometimes maybe even lonely… But that Benches, that heart sharing, make our soul more deep and beautiful, that places links us to the other souls, because there are benches for us in people’s hearts…
But in the end – there should be no words - only pictures. Words make things heavy – and words lie, I want people understand and feel the idea by themselves, in their own way… I want to make no conclusions …
