Vintage Shops Pt. 2: the Mermaid's Lagoon
5:34 PM
(*Leans over* *whispers* that ^ is so my Dad)
thee "Mermaid's Lagoon" is the largest little shop over at Ogden's Commons...also the beachyest.
Full of mermaids, whales, and the color blue, it's one of the cutest shops you'll ever see.
"The sea is His, for it was He who made it, And His hands formed the dry land."
-Psalms 95:5
“Look at that sea, girls--all silver and shadow and vision of things not seen. We couldn't enjoy its loveliness any more if we had millions of dollars and ropes of diamonds.”
“It isn't Narnia, you know," sobbed Lucy. "It's you. We shan't meet you there. And how can we live, never meeting you?"
"But you shall meet me, dear one," said Aslan.
"Are -are you there too, Sir?" said Edmund.
"I am," said Aslan. "But there I have another name. You must learn to know me by that name. This was the very reason why you were brought to Narnia, that by knowing me here for a little, you may know me better there.”
― C.S. Lewis, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader
