Star War Exhibition Signs for Sign2

 





Here are a few displays from the Lego exhibition that I have not shared before—small marvels of imagination captured in brick and colour, offered now for the Sign2 day.

Life remains rather busy of late. My mother often reminds me that it is far better to be busy than to be idle—especially in one’s profession. There is comfort, perhaps even dignity, in the steady hum of work, in knowing that the long years of perseverance have at last borne fruit in the form of loyal clients and a modest reputation hard-won. Yet, amid the rush, I came across an article that unsettled me—it claimed that every person endures three or four existential crises throughout the course of a lifetime. What a dreadful thought, to imagine those chasms of doubt returning again and again!

Still, perhaps such reckonings are the price of being fully human. We build our lives as we build with Lego—piece by piece, uncertain at times of the final form, but guided by quiet faith in the structure taking shape beneath our hands. And though the world may tilt with its crises and reckonings, there remains a kind of grace in the act of creating, in the small, luminous moments we pause to share.

  1. What a beautifully reflective piece. The connection between Lego creations and the way we build our lives—bit by bit, with quiet faith—is both touching and true. Amid the rush of daily work, it's comforting to be reminded of the grace found in small acts of imagination and shared moments. Thank you for this gentle pause.

  3. Las fotos me parecen preciosas. Me encanta construir con Lego. Fui un gran aficionado y comprador de este tipo de "juego". El texto me parece genial. Es así la vida, con sus crisis y sus seguridades no demasiado duraderas.

  4. No hay que perder la esperanza y como los legos construyamos nuestro propio futuro.

  5. Quanta raó té la teva mare! i en els moments en que estas ocupat, aquestes crisis no apareixen o almenys tan fortes com si estas inactiu. Estar creant continuamente és com un bàlsam davant de tot el que pot passar al teu voltant...
    Salutacions, James.

  6. I am astonished at the expertise Lego engineers display.
    As for existential crises, I suppose the longer one lives, the more likely one is to experience one or two.

  7. Star Wars was a bombshell when it came out. My son had many Star Wars toys when he was growing up, and they all got lots of play time. I'm not surprised that Legos has sets. Good to see your photos. They bring back pleasant memories.

  10. I'm not sure the original movies have aged well, but they sure shook the world when they came out. George Lucas and I are about the same age, and it was the same movie that burrowed into our hearts to make us love film--- King Solomon's Mines (1950) Stewart Granger and Deborah Kerr. He succeeded in the movie biz, and I spent most of my half-century in radio as a program director.
