Saarinen Peace

I was feeling down and frustrated yesterday. A myriad of first-world troubles that now seem mostly pointless. Yet there I was, having wandered into the courtyard of Saarinen’s famous Christ Church Lutheran, which is conveniently located across the street from our house. It’s a reflective place with a beautiful water feature (pictured here), and was perfectly empty and quiet then. Seeing the light dancing across the water and on the stones was uplifting and distracted me from my so-called troubles. It was a peaceful moment. Thank you, Eliel and Eero.
