If you’re engaged in social media, and since you’re reading
this blog there’s a good chance you are, you may be familiar with Facebook’s
Wordless Wednesdays. This is a day when some individuals and organizations
decide to post a picture that “says it all” without using any words.
Now, that’s all well and good, but I’m a writer who loves to
read. I like words, so Wordless Wednesdays
are not really my cup of tea.
But every once in a while, I come across a picture that
really speaks to me and I’ve decided that, rather than simply posting it in the
‘Stroll around Campus’ photo album on facebook and risk it getting hidden with
all the other photos, I would highlight it in an occasional (Semi)Wordless
Wednesday post for you to enjoy as well. It won’t always be the clearest
picture, but I hope it will inspire emotions and thoughts that will help you
understand the story of Shepherds College. That’s the “wordless” part.
Sometimes the “semi” part will come from you. I want to hear
the word or phrase that came to mind when you first saw the picture. It will
help feed my word-loving soul. Please post your thoughts in either the blog or
facebook comments.
Sometimes, the “semi” part will come from me if I feel the
picture needs to be put into context.
I saw this photo op from down the hallway and rushed up to
it praying the whole way, “God, please don’t let them move. Keep them still,
don’t let them move.” They didn’t move.
Here is today’s picture:
