Spine

Still on my travels in Britain.

Yesterday, on a whim ,we took a detour on the way south to the city  of Lincoln.

The town is dominated by its breathtaking, ancient cathedral.

This picture of the roof highlights the structural spine of the building.

To me it appears somewhat like the skeleton of a fish.

Regardless of religious persuasion ( if any ), we all need a spiritual backbone – something that holds it all together for us on our meandering life journeys.

A spine, a touchstone, an anchor.

Something firm and certain,no matter the detours we take!
