The stable at dusk

After I have been out and about (telling a story at the Sure Start children's centre, parish visiting and so on), it's time to stable the horse for the night.  Seeing the lights in the old building makes me feel a closeness to the grooms who have worked here over the centuries.  It's one of the shared experiences that transcend distance, reminding me of the close connection between human beings in different times and places.  It's one of the hints of the way that all our lives are embraced within eternity.
