travelling notes (lviii)


Inside ancient cathedrals, I am often mesmerised by confessionals. Those beautiful, half-abandoned brown boxes trampled down by a million sinful knees. I am moved. Moved to the point where I want to confess all my sins, past, present and even future, but inside ancient cathedrals - you do not stand a chance: the priest is nowhere to be seen.
