I’ve never seen one of these before. A wind phone. Si King shared it on Instagram the other day.
I think it might be a Japanese idea originally where there’s a disconnected phone in a garden.
People go there to talk to the people they’ve lost. Not because anyone answers or because it “fixes” grief.
Just because sometimes love needs somewhere to go. I think that’s beautiful.
We spend so much time pretending we’re fine, moving on, staying busy, “being strong”
Meanwhile, a little old rotary phone in the wind is quietly reminding people that missing someone is normal. That continuing the conversation is normal.
