I sat on the beach staring at the sea
wondering what my next piece would be.
As I walked away, I looked back for one
last view and realized I had spent the day
sitting in a chair that was very beautiful —
Just looking at it made me feel happy.
The same thing happened to me when I
recently traveled to North Africa —
only the chair I was looking back upon
was my own life.
