“You can mould clay into a vessel;

yet, it is its emptiness that makes it useful.

Cut doors and windows from the walls of a house;

but the ultimate use of the house will depend on that part where nothing exists.”

(Laozi)

Abode: archaic, poetic expression to denote our home, our flat it is safe but can be closed too, it can be flooded with light but can transform into a mysterious world of dark shadows we can live in it and play in it we can find solace in it or try to break free from its walls it is up to us if we fill it or empty it we can leave and return to it...
