Silence spreads like a wordless prayer. The lake breathes slowly, as time dissolves along the line where water meets sky. Nothing asks for haste.
There is an invisible dialogue between she and the horizon – a conversation that needs no sound, only presence. The tree, stripped of its leaves, understands. It bends with the wind but stands tall, holding secrets that winter cannot erase.
The bench is not just a place to rest but a space where thoughts drift lightly, dancing between what is and what once was. Solitude, here, does not weigh heavy. It spreads like light over the water, turning every absence into a poem.
At the lake’s edge, what feels missing becomes whole.
***
O silêncio se espalha como uma prece sem palavras. O lago respira devagar, enquanto o tempo se dissolve na linha onde a água encontra o céu. Nada pede pressa.
Há um diálogo invisível entre ela e o horizonte – uma conversa que não precisa de som, apenas de presença. A árvore, despida de folhas, entende. Ela se curva com o vento, mas permanece de pé, guardando segredos que o inverno não apaga.
O banco não é só um lugar de descanso, mas um espaço onde pensamentos flutuam leves, dançando entre o agora e o que já foi. A solidão, aqui, não pesa. Ela se espalha como luz sobre a água, transformando cada ausência em um poema.
Na margem do lago, o que falta se torna inteiro.

A small window into my sanctuary.
Books line the radiator shelf, from war photography and philosophy to fiction, poetry, and memory. Between them, a pair of Shabbat candles stands ready for Friday night. Off to the left: a Hanukkah menorah, its base heavy with history and tradition, now quiet after last winter’s lights.
Houseplants lean toward the night-glow, a salt lamp softens the edges, and reflections of the kitchen echo gently in the dark glass. This is where I rest. Where I reflect. Where ritual and routine meet.
A still moment from an ordinary evening in Espoo, Finland, shot handheld on the Canon 1D X Mark II with a wide aperture to let the atmosphere breathe.
