Quote by Gráinne Lyons

“I am beginning to properly enjoy myself, to revel in the fact that when I am walking, nobody knows where I am or what I'm doing. This realisation continued today on the shoreline, as looking and learning about the seaweeds through Ellen Hutchins's curiosity, I began also to appreciate the beauty she saw all around her as she walked - to understand how happy she was here in her solitude.”

Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.”
