Focus on the Eyes




My new eyes.  I have been wearing contacts now for....well a long time.  Sigh.  As I grow younger, my vision grows older,  funny how that works, making contacts more difficult to get just right.  I know, I am supposed to have a picture of me here.  It kind of is.  I'm not used to being in front of the camera.  I am used to being behind one instead.

I think about what it would be like without corrective lenses.  I don't have to imagine too much, just take off my glasses.  It would be a sad world for me not to be able to see my family, drive and see what beautiful country we have around us.  I am thankful for the technology to make corrective lenses.  Or life would really be only a blur!  As far as the book, well, it is a childhood favorite series.

The eyes are the mirror of the soul.  Yiddish proverb.
