&apos;As a child, I heard about the tall rock my grandmother used to live on, at the edge of the sea. I heard of the waves, crashing onto the shore, of their unmistakable sound, of the salt in the nostrils and the grilled fish for supper. &apos;SHOW NOTES: EPISODE 2 of series 4 - The Series of Things.STORY:Today&apos;s story tells of the few scarcity of belongings kept by my migrant grandparents.DISCUSSION:We ask what else migrants leave behind, apart from country, culture and sometimes family. Our discussion concludes with a meditation on what we possibly gain from forming connections with the migrant communities.RECOMMENDATION:This episode&apos;s recommendation is another film: THE WEEPING MEADOW which tells the story of a migrant community and also, of the harshness of war and all that war takes with it. The film is aesthetically pleasing, each frame is perfectly constructed and curated to the most minute details.ANNOUNCEMENTS:We would love for this series to be collaborative, and we invite you to bring your stories to the fold!Please share the stories of those things that are not just things here or send me an Instagram message.The show is currently unfunded.

THE STORIES OF THINGS: House on a high rock

&apos;Holding inside her the secret pattern for the carpet, she would weave each thread gently in and gently out, through hard wired vertical, thick weft thread, stopping from time to time to align them . Sometimes the shed stick, the wooden stick separating threads, would drop, the tension in the thread would be lost, and words would pass, or would they retrieve their work peacefully and resolutely?&apos;Welcome to episode 1 of series 4 - The Series of Things.This new series is called: The Stories of Things and it aims to feature  stories of  those things that are meaningful in our lives – those things that we have kept, that we have carried with us from house to house, the things that we do not remove easily from our possession.We would love for this series to be collaborative, and we invite you to bring your stories to the fold!  Please share the stories of those things that are not just things on the website or in an Instagram message.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/mybeautifulstories)
