The Pru in the fog

A reminder to myself. 

  1. share first, synthesize later
  2. touch it, feel it, see it
  3. incompleteness is the rule
Looking back on this photo from 2013, so much comes to mind. 

I see irony - the photo of the Prudential building in the fog carries the notion of "prudence", a recollection of the Tower of Babel, and fog. I like it because there is no place for any feeling of clarity to land. So the picture keeps pulling on me.

Location: Prudential Tower, 800 Boylston St, Boston, MA 02199, USA

I have to say that this current interval of work is a departure for what I'd consider my norms.  But I'm going to have faith that this wandering is an unfolding opportunity to see and experience the world and to find joy and pleasure in it.
