Lighthouses were never meant to be seen up close.
They stood for those far away. For ships moving through darkness, weather, doubt. For crews who never knew the name of the person who built the light, only that it was there.
Each beam carried untold stories. Safe arrivals. Narrow escapes. Voyages that never returned. The tower remains silent, holding every outcome without distinction.
As children, they felt mythical. As adults, they feel patient.
The sea has changed. Navigation has changed. The lighthouse still waits.
Seen in retrospect.
