〰️ For some, this photograph may not seem special. Perhaps to you, the one looking at it, it doesn’t tell any story.
Well, for me, this is the most beautiful picture I’ve ever taken.
(I’ll tell you right here why)
Just recently, I was on the beach with someone at sunrise and we observed together a couple who, from midnight until the morning, when a few rays of the sun were emerging from the sea, didn’t leave their blanket.
It was as if they had created a bubble just for themselves, a small universe that kept them from hearing the time, the space, the music and the energy outside.
It was just the two of them. On the blanket, under the moon, under the stars, under the sun. They had created such a palpable intimacy that it was soothing just to watch them for a while, trying to absorb a few drops from the new cosmos in front of you.
The story of the photograph seemed to fit very well with a conversation I had a few days ago. Somewhere in the south of France, an elderly couple came to the beach where I was with my friends and quietly set up two chairs near the waves.
It was just the two of them. They looked at each other, held hands, smiled, and then I could see (very clearly, as if an invisible hand had drawn it) their bubble of love, which began right from the clasp of their hands.
A vital space - an intimacy that belonged and will belong only to them.

𝐒ynchronisme spéculaire is a concept I learned in my developmental psychology class.
it refers to the moment when a child becomes aware that the movements they see in the mirror correspond to their own subjective experience.
this reminded me of my own journey in realizing who I am and who I no longer am.
and when I finally made the connection between the two versions of myself, everything just merged into one piece – there was no longer a sense of being torn in two, but a human being who could finally feel whole on their own.
