Click to make the picture bigger (and perhaps to see a question mark).There are some things you can't capture in a picture; you have to see them with your heart.
When we've been away from home all day, as we were today for a funeral, and drive into our town from the south, the street lights line up along the curve of the road in such a way that it forms a question mark.
When my children were small, I told them, "Our town is asking this question: "Why did you leave?"
I never found an adequate answer to the question, so we've stayed around here for the better part of the past 30-plus years.
So this evening I was going to take a picture to show my readers. A picture of the question mark.
And turns out, it only looks like a squiggle. But I swear, when you really, really see it... it's a question mark. And it really, really does say, "How could you leave this town?"
Perhaps someday my daughter can capture a picture with the lights actually looking like a question mark.
I see it!
ReplyDeleteIf you click to make it bigger, you can see it. BUT, there HAS to be a better way to capture it. I'll see what I can do. Maybe I'll borrow a camera from work? Hmmm.
ReplyDeleteYup, I can see it, too. ;o)
ReplyDeleteI've got bad knees, too. Arthritis, and it's really painful. Keeps me from doing much walking at all, and I do miss my walks.
We're under a winter weather advisory for sleet, freezing rain and snow. So far just a little sleet, and I'm hoping no ice at all!
Hope it misses y'all, and you have a good evening/day tomorrow.
Hugs,
Diane
I see it.
ReplyDeleteStay warm. It's cold here in OK, I know it's probably colder in MO!
Hi Donna,
ReplyDeleteI linked to you from Talk to Grams. I saw the question mark right away. Such a nice sentiment you told your children! Nice Blog too.
