Sometimes the stairs lead to unknown places, sometimes they lead us astray. Other times they lead us to ourselves, but other times where we need to be.

The same stairs that lead up, also lead down - its all about your perspective

Love ❤️

I have a stained glass window from there.

down in little italy, eh? I lived on mott street for like 5 seconds at some point.

I used to go to church there!! Quick funny story: Len I moved to New York way back in 1996, then I wanted to go to midnight mass and he didn't want to go so I went alone, at midnight. On my way from West Broadway to that church I passed dozens of lines and lines and lines of fancy dressed people trying to get into what I thought was midnight masses of other denominations. After mass there were still people in line and I didn't understand why? About 2 weeks later, people told me, " they weren't standing in line for mass!!! They were going into clubs!!!" #yokel
