Fall yellowsand autumn reds gentlydance outside to his final playlistand life stories. Then, ourlives resume. Earlier this week, I attended the funeral of my cousin. Even though I had a connection with him, we never really had much contact. Still, I wanted to be there. Also because my mother is the eldest still alive from that side of the family, and I was the only option she had to get her to the location that was quite remote and almost literally in the middle of nowhere.

Stacking stones. Admittedly, I’m not super good at it. But somehow, I always like to make a little tower. It’s a fun thing to do. But stones also can have meaning. Of course there is the geological significance of them: they can tell the history of our planet. But stones also are sometimes used to remember those who are no longer with us. You can see that, for example, with breath-taking, powerful silence, in Auschwitz. But also in many other places. When I stack a few rocks, it’s a bit of everything.
