re·flec·tion
/rəˈflekSH(ə)n/
noun -serious thought or consideration.

The most useful reflection involves the conscious consideration and analysis of beliefs and actions for the purpose of learning. Reflection gives the brain an opportunity to pause amidst the chaos, untangle and sort through observations and experiences, consider multiple possible interpretations, and create meaning.

Imperial passage

Found in 1770 in Albuixech (Valencia), the mill Rafael Catala was known for their exquisite brocades, many of which were loomed by hand on their 18th and 19th century looms. With over 300 years of history, the mill held royal warrants for their generations of service to the royal family of Spain. Sadly, in 2013 their doors shuttered permanently, brining an end to their unique craft.

The weight, hand and technique of the weave are exceptional and unlike any milled throughout the world before or since.

Great Expectations

I imagine Dickens prolific novel which tells a tale of life’s underlying contrasts, those of wealth and poverty, love and rejection.

Estelle, the beautiful but cold daughter of the eccentric Miss Havisham sits in respite at Satis House, dressed to mourn her mother’s passing. She embodies a destructive beauty, wielding the powers of seduction that her Pip was all too naive to resist despite her cold heart.

Believing in your dreams is much like believing in love. It means not giving up, continue along life’s path despite the obstacles and to keep that belief.

It may have taken year’s of heartache and misfortune, but in the end love did win and she and Pip would marry. In the final scene Pip take’s Estelle’s hand as they leave the moonlit ruins, he sees “no shadow of another parting from her.”

Love shall prevail my friends. Always does.

A telling image, an isolated state of mind. Looking towards the future where we can freely embrace one another again and walk outside without hesitation. This too, shall pass my friends.
