Within Crossing Lines

The shifting boundary, captured by photographer Mayumi Okada

We are always moving back and forth across boundary lines.

Some come to us every day from the other side. Some appear one day without warning and change a life. Some we simply watch, and some we leap across ourselves.

The same line can become a happy memory, or leave a bitter one. It is never straight, never neatly aligned, and never just one. A memory of shifting boundaries.
