Day Four

It's a pretty common thing for students to bring a pencil into a test. When you are unsure about something, or hope for the chance to take back a mistake, it is best to write in pencil.

I once had someone write something for me using a pencil. I now wish I had asked him to write with a permanent marker.



I sleep under this reminder every night, and wake up to it in the morning. Sometimes, I don't even realize it is there -- it's been part of my bed for so long that, while its sentimental value hasn't decreased, it occasionally escapes my notice until I find myself unable to sleep. I believe that is why it was written to begin with. Not to serve as a daily substitute for hearing the words, but as a reminder when the words aren't available.

Sorry this post is so late, but I was taking a midnight drive around the beaches in my area. I could have snapped a picture out there, but it was too cold to get out of the car, and this picture seemed more fitting for today.
