Visions Of a Life

Seeing the windows of someone else’s home, I always imagine myself there. Would I be sitting by the window drinking tea? Would I be the one with the white curtains?

I spotted this reflection last spring in a puddle at a bus stop, very pregnant and on my way to my very last ultrasound. It was a special moment and now it’s captured, oddly, in my mind by this shot.

I guess I was having visions of my future life with my babies, wondering what it would be like – while looking at the reflected windows of someone else’s life.

I started doing it when I was walking from the university back at home, four years the same way, and that kept me from being bored. I view it like playing with the world. When I have my own life in balance, it is just a game 🙂

It was a good break but I always end up coming back to the online world, such a love/hate relationship with the Internet… 😉 I can’t believe it has been 5 months already! I’m happy to hear all is going well. ✨

What an interesting concept about windows. When we were in Paris, our rooms faced what appeared to be windows to residential spaces. I imagined what it would be like to live in the heart of city above the shops. Much different from my suburban life amongst the trees!
I love the photo you captured and the thoughts you associated with it 🙂

Thanks for such a sweet comment! Window-dreaming is something I definitely do when I travel! Paris is a great place for that! In Tokyo, we saw tall high risers with offices and more offices inside. They were lit up when it was dark in the evening and I couldn’t stop imagining what it would be like to work there.
