Amazingly synchronistic

Britta found the quote below by an author called John Green. It gave me goose bumps. I was wanting to have some broken pots/vessels in the exhibition, alluding to 'broken vessel/ broken body'... This quote has ignited an idea. I'm working on it. Watch this space... 

 "Each of us starts out a watertight vessel. And these things happen - these people leave us, or don't love us, or don't get us, or we don't get them, and we lose and fail and hurt one another. And the vessel starts to crack open in places . . . Once the vessel cracks open, the end becomes inevitable . . . But there is all this time between when the cracks start to open up and when we finally fall apart. And it is only in that time that we can see one another, because we see out of ourselves through our cracks and into others through theirs."
