What if Shakespeare was right about beauty—but wrong about where its permanence comes from?
We often think beauty fades, memories disappear, and time eventually takes everything from us.
But perhaps the deepest beauty isn’t something we preserve.
Perhaps it is something we give to the world simply by being ourselves.
A contemporary reimagining of Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18—moving from summer’s fleeting beauty to something deeper:
Your being reaching into being.
Your presence changing what it meets.
