Heights. There is something about heights that fascinates. And teaches.

From up in the sky, the mighty river against the massive Sun is but a thread under a bulb. The massive cliff, a half eaten cookie. Giant houses morph into tiny squares.

Boundaries don’t exist! The map is not the territory. There is no end to the sky and Earth doesnt ‘start’ anywhere. They just merge. Everything is one!

Perhaps that is a good perspective to have as we grapple with our lives and work. To view everything as just a part of a large ‘oneness’. To view ourselves too. As connected beings.

Suddenly everything becomes easy. Kindness. Love. Compassion. Brotherhood. Affection. It is a a lovely emotion to hold tight to.

Take to the skies. Perhaps, in your mind. Go on. Close your eyes.

Fly.

Across the bridge, beyond the river and from behind the mountains, the Sun emerged. Announcing a new day and another opportunity to begin anew.
That is all that’s required. One more chance to give it a go.

There it sat, on the banks of the River #Siene. A green box with what seemed like a weak padlock and an infirm lock.
Saying hello to the emerging morning and the nonchalant passerby.

And as stopped to click a picture, I wondered what’s inside. And if the lock was worth it. I wondered if it is my story. Or perhaps yours?

That evening a quote presented itself on my screen. “It’s a lot easier to be lost than found. It’s the reason we’re always searching and rarely discovered – so many locks and not enough keys.” #LocksofLove #locks #keys #travelblogging #travel #Paris #france #Europe #EU #me #notestomyself #metaphor #river #energy (at Paris, France)

Locks of Love.
The couple literally lock up (their love) and throw the key into the river.
It is an irony, isn’t it, to see locks standing in for love. But the redemption, if it were, is with the keys thrown into the river. Perhaps snared by it for safekeeping. In full flow.
After all what good is love if it cannot flow? And what good is flow if it cannot breach?

Some pictures stay at two places. On the hard drive of a machine is obvious. But it is in when it lives in the soft tissue of memory, it truly comes alive.
This is the River Siene in #Paris . As the lights were coming on, as if to say goodbye to the Sun.
In a truly joyful way. It after all was night! 🙂 #travel #Paris #River #Siene #evening #lights #metropolis #EU #Europe #France #memory #night #travelblogger

The balustrade on the bridge over the River Sienne on Paris, has seen much river flow beneath it. So much so, that it barely warms up to the Sun making its appearance in the horizon.

The Sun isn’t making an appearance for the Sienne either. Some sort of a magical coincidence.

The average traveller in me revels at such coincidences as we pack our bags one more time today.

How much of France can one picture hold.
Well, quite a bit. The Eiffel Tower, the French national flag and the River Sienne in one picture.
It’s not as though this is a rare picture. It’s just another picture that packs a lot of France into it.
