This quote comes from a website called "The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows". There are all sorts of made up words and definitions for those words. It is fun reading. I originally saw it when someone posted it on Facebook, from Upworthy, with the description "random internet quote guaranteed to give you the chills." And dang if it didn't give me the chills! The quote makes me feel tiny and insignificant, but in a good way.
I created the collage of present day me and young me on Thursday night and I couldn't figure out what text I wanted to put on the collage.
I like it, and I love it all.... it's perfect.
ReplyDeleteI think about this whenever I'm sitting and people watching in malls, or restaurants, etc. Often, can't help but wonder where people are heading and what their lives are like.
ReplyDeleteLove it with the photos. What a little cutie. Young you reminds me a little of Scout in To Kill a Mockingbird.
Thanks!
DeleteI really like this. Truly. I have never thought of myself as an extra. I like that.
ReplyDeleteI hope to be a meaningful extra!
DeleteThanks for the link, Annie. I've often pondered that which is written in your picture, the Church so often having it all down to a final check list that settles the whole affair, me thinking perhaps God's grace is a bit broader than ours.....
ReplyDeleteI think so, Jim!
DeleteI love the way you merged the 2 images of you and the quote, with that intersecting glow of life. John Koenig perfectly articulated the relationship between our life and the lives of the plethora of people that cross our pathway throughout life. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteThanks! We never really know when we are the ones who make a difference in someone's day.
DeleteI was just thinking you'd been quiet - nice to read you again. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Got to get my priorities in order! I waste too much time on FB! I enjoy this more, to tell the truth!
Deletevery clever and artistic!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Deborah!
Deletelove, love, love so much
