On the Pont de l’Ardevêche in Paris lovers fasten a padlock to the bridge, or more likely to other padlocks padlocked to the bridge, then they throw the key in the Seine.
It sounds a bit silly, or like a fad, but when I walked onto the bridge, and I saw the immensity of it, every single lock the physical marking and declaration of the love between two people, I was deeply, and suddenly, moved.
It is beautiful, not in an artistic way, but in that way in which we humans make the important invisible visible.
I thought of the loving wishes hung on temple trees in Kyoto, similar, but very different……
Then I turned and saw Notre Dame, that incredible cathedral of great beauty, and I kneeled down and took this.
How many ways to make the important invisible, visible?

Your series on enchantment is inspiring and profound, Bob. ” How many ways to make the important invisible, visible?” As an artist, I appreciate the depth of your writing as you explore these beautiful mysteries. This post reminds me of a quote: “It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye” – St-Exupery. Thank you for your thoughtful and moving words.
Thank you so much for these comments Daniel. I really appreciate you saying them. Your quote from The Little Prince is one of my most favourite passages in that wonderful book. I completely agree with it.
