Farewell to Wimbledon

Art is powerful because it heightens perception.
It does this by lifting an object or experience out
of its normal context so that it can be apprehended
freshly and more fully.
Human faces are everywhere, but a portrait cause us to see
A human face as a special object of contemplation.
 

 We all know the grandeur of Wimbledon.  Boris Becker at the age of 17 was the youngest man ever to receive the honour of such achievement.

 We all have a special place that transcends the feeling of ‘home’.  It’s as if one’s soul found a kindred spirit in a place like the womb from which one came.  When we leave, it bears a certain kind of pain, loss, emptiness¾ but remains an irreplaceable memory.
