Wednesday, August 18, 2010 - Records of a present past
Inside the house everything is more than 50 years! If not everything, at least 90%. This is a story of a life told in objects. If it's true that a picture is worth a thousand words, that's also true that these told stories are so beautiful to hear and a pleasure and enrichment for the soul. Because only with roots clinging to the land we can build our present and base our future.
There it used to be my husband's bed-room,
My husband didn't resist leaving his personal touch to this space. It proves that the type writer still works. And we could see my son all excited around all these objects. In a time when the map doesn't work anymore, only the GPS; the television looses value against the computer; the temperature doesn't matter when you have air conditioning, etc., all this was magical. He was running and jumping around while his grand-father was explaining how all worked.
My mother-in-law loved to make bags and pillows.
The album of memories of an era that doesn't come back anymore but that was lived intensely.
This stereo doesn't work anymore. But my father-in-law doesn't loose the hope of finding a needle that allows him to hear the old vinyl as well as speak english fluently again, because the old english course, with books and records, is still waiting for a new life.
Furnishing itself, speak of a time.
And so many things remain to show. So many...
