What is recorded here
Two stones stand together in County Mayo, waiting for the world to remember why they were set free. They may have marked a boundary, honoured a dead person or simply watched the seasons turn. Their silence is not emptiness but patience, holding human life and letting go of the names that once gave it shape.
