which I thought church-like when I was a child.

Salisbury Cathedral, England
Since I posted dark and mysterious windows last week, I thought to offer contrast today with portals so heavenly and bright, one can easily imagine spirits being drawn to the light that beckons with a promise of hope and joy.

Growning up with the Troubles in Northern Ireland, I have not always been a fan of organized religion and the wrongs so often perpetrated in its name. That said, I have since sat quietly in a good many churches, temples and abbeys…and felt myself infused with love, goodwill and the unrelenting sense that mankind’s innate goodness will triumph above all.
I hope these windows will offer momentary respite from the trials of the moment and be a sweet reminder that each day is precious beyond words….
