Summit

"You cannot stay on the summit forever.
You have to come down again...
One climbs and one sees;
one descends and one sees no longer.
But one has seen.
There is an art of conducting oneself
by the memory of what one saw higher up.
When one no longer sees,
one can at least still know."
René Daumal

Cannon

One of my neighbours has two cannon in his garden.
Luckily, they are pointing in the opposite direction!

"Whole against the sky"

“Once the realization is accepted
that even between the closest human beings
infinite distances continue to exist,
a wonderful living side by side can grow up,
if they succeed in loving the distance between them
which makes it possible for each to see the other
whole against the sky.”

Rainer Maria Rilke
