i was not planning on posting this photograph this early (and out of order) but i needed to process it for something we were doing at church, so here it is.

it is pretty difficult to explain what being in this particular building stirred up in me but i will try. i just kept imagining the people that were involved in building it. not so much the builders or crew themselves, but the people representing the church. i kept imagining them walking around the same rooms i was standing in as walls were going up and how their hearts were most likely filled with excitement as they expected great things to happen within these walls. there i stood on the other end of that spectrum. it felt like hope crushed. awful.

i really want to go back to this particular location with more proper equipment, but for now this will have to do.

listening to: death cab for cutie - i'll follow you into the dark
