Nostalgia
There was a time when . . .
But that was then and this is not
Thanks for the memories
. . . forgetting what lies behind
and straining forward to what lies
ahead. (Philippians 3:13-14)

DID THE FLASH GO OFF?
Much like faith in a light switch doing its job, hoping to capture an image and wondering "Did the flash go off?" barely takes a moment, but it can give the illumination necessary to preserve an image for a lifetime.
It's a question I heard often at family gatherings - and one I continue to ask regarding my own flashes of brilliance: some underexposed, out of focus or perhaps not that bright after all. But every once in awhile . . . something clicks!
