We have a friend who builds this incredible stone sculptures. I guess if you look at it from philosophical stand point –what begins with Nature, ends with Nature - a complete circle of life. He balances the stones, carefully analyzing the placement of each; and despite of the ocean breeze ultimately finds the center of gravity. And so, it almost seems, like through building these remarkable sculptures he attempts to find a center of gravity in his own life as well– there you go: a complete circle of life. He can sit there and continue building for hours; not disrupted by anything in this dangerous World; not weathered by any problems of life at the time of creation; not noticing anything except pouring of his own soul into a stone sculpture that becomes much more than just a piece of art. It is an attempt to find peace with yourself; try to demonstrate to the World who you are – how gentle, deep and patient your spirit is; how serene and unruffled your thought process at this moment; how committed you are to making it work - not only with each particular stone sculpture, but with your own life as well.
