bee examines the nature of walls, heartache

I read a beautiful quote from Teju Cole today, from her New York Times Magazine photography essay on objects...

"Objects have the longest memories of all; beneath their stillness they are alive with the terrors they have witnessed."

I felt like the wind was knocked out of me. In that instant I immediately began to think differently about the "walls" of my nest cage AND of all the walls, real or metaphorical, that hold life prisoner.
