Free Speech Wall

A writer is someone who can make a riddle out of an answer.  ~Karl Kraus

Come with me for a visit to the Free Speech Wall! It is a sunny winter day, but bitter cold and windy. The Charlottesville Downtown Mall erected this slate wall  recently. There are ledges for chalk, and anyone can write anything on this wall that they want. ANYTHING! I think it gives one a good idea of the people of this city. So Phil and I had to get our pictures taken while writing on the wall.  What would YOU write??? As we walk back to the car, our shadows say good-bye until the next adventure. Have you thought what you would write yet? If I get enough answers, I will likely do a post about them.

“Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”

1 John 3
