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.
