Scenes

Some scenes seem to pass almost unnoticed.

A gate left half open.

A quiet street after rain.

The brief pause before someone answers.

They may appear ordinary at first.

And yet, such scenes can hold a way of feeling and noticing the world.

They appear, and fade, with almost no sound.

This is a place for staying with what ordinary life quietly reveals.

A first scene

The Tenderness of Itterasshai
A small word for sending someone out, while quietly keeping a place for return.
