Graveyard
on Fogo is one of my favorite places I discovered recently. It may be weird to like a graveyard. Well, I think that only
those who are afraid of death avoid to face it. But it's an inevitable part of
life. Something much bigger than anyone, so there is no control possible. So,
it's better to accept the death as a part of our life as it accepts our right
to live. A painful experience sometimes,
I know. "Memento mori" as the wise men of the past told us.
Well, on
Fogo I love that synthesis between the life and death. The perfect balance of
nature. The dead tree is there in the middle of the graveyard. And at the same
time I see a ray of light breaking through. And very beautiful view of the sea
and sunset. The ghosts are quiet and harmless. They bring some peace to this
place without disturbing this world of living.
I told you
it's always sunset on Fogo. The perfect moment between the daylight and the
dusk. I was enjoying this view together with the King one day. And he told me
that it was an idea to combine Fire. Water and Light. I guess he is succeeded here
too. It's fascinating to watch this never ending sunset.
And a small
romantic touch. A flying bench in this place. A creepy place? Well, how is
about flying through the ghosts? I really love that experience. It's calming,
soothing and somehow... enjoyable.
