Light and shadows London, ON January 2024 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
It happened yesterday morning at the kitchen table. As I settled in for some breakfast and catch-up reading, the sunlight was pouring in through the front window.
It took a while for my still-sleepy brain to register that we hadn’t seen this much sun - or, frankly, any of it - in weeks. So I was a little slow to notice the little light show my beloved glass mason jar mug was putting on mere inches below my nose.
Soon enough, though, spontaneous photography scuttled my reading plans, and the coffee needed another spin in the microwave.
But it was worth it. Because when light travels 147 million kilometres through space and splatters itself all over the kitchen table, it feels like the right thing to do to stop what we’re doing and remember the moment it first touches our soul.
