Another impression of our silent Sit-In for peace, love and compassion for all life last Saterday at Utrecht Central Station. Despite the cold, the people sitting and passersby of every age radiated love, joy, emotion and peace.
Special thanks to #Wellbeing for their support, to #RedRebels and #Loesje for their lovely artistic contribution that bound the event together.

Scriptorium '77
I’ve always believed a door should open more than once.

Hospitality was never just about tea and polite conversation. It’s about making space. About allowing more than one story to exist under the same roof. More than one connection. More than one kind of closeness.

Those coral flip-flops by the door aren’t mine.
They aren’t my girlfriend’s either.

And that makes me smile.

They mean someone else stepped in and felt at ease. Not just at the table, but in the softer corners of our place. In the spaces where you don’t perform, where you sit closer, where you stay longer.

Some people guard love like it’s limited.
We’ve learned it expands.

Our door opens easily.
So do we.
