A pang in my heart

Another breathtaking post from Dominique Browning at Slow Love Life … her photographs of ice and meditation on how they represent a moment stopped in its tracks were just what I needed on this Sunday morning.  This is a gorgeous articulation of a feeling I know well and experience every single day:

I did feel a pang in my heart, a stab of love for this gorgeous world, and a longing for it to go on forever, and an ache because it won’t.

  1. This: “I did feel a pang in my heart, a stab of love for this gorgeous world, and a longing for it to go on forever, and an ache because it won’t.” is exactly how I feel, on a day-to-day basis. I cannot even tell you the comfort it brings me to know that someone else, somewhere across the world, understands that feeling.

  2. Great tip Lindsey—such lovely images and words. It made me think of the Tao te Ching which suggests that because it prefers low places, water is above all things. Perhaps no less true of ice on the precipice of spring.
