Why not cry ?

In the small coastal village of Palafrugell, at the Spanish Costa Brava, is an impressive house build in the 1920’s by a Russian Baroness. It overlooks the Mediterranean and is surrounded by beautiful gardens. Down the steep slopes to the sea an elegant staircase is build from coloured bricks leading to a small beach.
He has been visiting this magical place in the year 2000 with Mayumi Nakazaki, his wife at the time.
Last night in a dream he saw a film that consisted of one scene only. Those stairs on which we could see the legs and boots of a person descending. He was surprised! He recognised those stairs! He had been there! Together with Mayumi Nakazaki.
This made him remember the days he was married. And he started to cry.

Not for Mayumi though. But for the memory of togetherness with a special person. For the memory of having love in life.

What is man without woman?
What is woman without man?
Lonely!

Although man and woman together can still be lonely. Happily married since I was a teenager, sometimes I have been lonely in my marriage as we both changed and grew and reached higher planes of our souls at diferent times. The joy comes when we finally share our new growth with each other and find a whole new reason to love in one another.

Oh, grow up old man. If you've squandered your chance of true love at your age, you've stepped off the brink and by now, are slowly slipping into the abbyss of loneliness, which will then proceed relentlessly towards certain lonely death.

ps
You are a 'pioneering' photographer? The please do tell what your intention was with your auto-portrait posted on this site. Is it supposed to entice the wayward netsurfer towards the contents of said electronic pinboard. Note the eerily "enlightened, - I am walking on water"- eyes, that creepy, crooked little "I have great wisdom"-smile. Dear Sir, what nefarious Eastern Baba or Shri are you into?

pps Don't let the serious people get you. Hope you get over getting over it. Get over it.
