Earlier during this Pandemic Year,

My Friend and Brother in Islam, Jeremy, Direct Messaged a photograph of himself standing inside The Centre of Vancouver Public Labyrinth.

Today,

Jeremy messaged me a photograph of the Orange Labyrinth I painted on what I call Labyrinth Pier . . .

My Orange Labyrinth Design is fading in places yet it remains walkable if you look closely and walk mindfully.

“Sunday,

We came across this cool little Labyrinth stone circle by False Creek.

Intrigued by one of my friend’s friend explanation of how it is meant as a reflective meditative journey/walk to contemplate and to feel,

We of course had to try this fun little exercise out.

The 3 of us tried it.

I was surprise – it worked.

The 3 of us came to the exit with very different thoughts and emotions invoked:

  • a sense of peace with decisions made,
  • an openness to what the world is offering followed by noticing three simple words ‘Love is Everywhere’ etched on a log ahead,
  • and oddly the rush of anxiousness wondering when am I going to get the heck out of this circle.

Perhaps it is the slowing down to realize how far we’ve come along.

Perhaps it highlighted the present moment.

Perhaps it is the unknown of how many more turns before I get there;

I should embrace the unknown a little bit, lol.

Fast forward.

Today I did the grouse grind after work.

My mind was only focused on the goal at top.

There was no musing, only pushing myself harder, faster, stronger – feeling my legs and my lungs.

The circle, the grind, and the musing!

Try it, if not for the musing, for the curiosity.

It’s good to slow down once in a while 🙂 “

Before painting Labyrinths on this Pier overlooking Alder Bay in Vancouver,

I asked as many neighbourhood people as I could,

what regular events happened in this public space ?

Beyond an annual one day community garage sale / swap meet,

nothing happened else was programmed here.

It might be that my painting several Labyrinths here, transforming this pier into Labyrinth Pier, plus the Pandemic shutting down many indoor events, has brought out this Salsa Dance class . . .

During the Pandemic,

Many have been waiting for Barber Shops and Hair Salons to re-open.

People need haircuts.

Likewise,

The Vancouver Public Labyrinth has been in need of a Grass Cut.

Today was that day . . .

Grateful to The City of Vancouver / Vancouver Parks Board staff for carefully cutting overgrown grass around the Vancouver Public Labyrinth !
