I am standing at the edge of the swimming pool. I am standing at the edge of the swimming pool. 2,60m deep, the sign says. Blue, transparent, crystal clear. In a way, it's beautiful.
Goodness...how I loved this. I loved how you explained that the glass wall, while protecting us, lets us see what we're missing while behind it. I also equally loved how you showed us that we own those glass walls...we set them up! 🤯 Brilliant! Finally, I really appreciated how you talked about moving them aside instead of the typical "breaking" them. We set them up to comfort us, even if they limited us. They were set up with care and good intention. They were set up for another version of ourselves. A version we've since grown out of but should still cherish and love. I know I just rewrote your whole piece back to you, but it really hit me. Thank you 🙏
