The excavated soil, which was supposed to be filled with concrete to become a proper house foundation but continued to wait until that moment, represented my attempt to build a house at the same age that my father was when he started to build his.
Under the influence of weather conditions, a significant amount of already excavated soil has returned to its original state, leaving visible traces of previous intervention that took place at the same spot several months earlier.
Re-engagement of close friends and family members, to re-excavate the soil witnesses of investing, sometimes, Sisyphus effort and patience to overcome current possibilities and chances.
