“Sometimes, we push our glasses to the TOP of our head and spend a little

too much time looking for them around THE ROOM, in love with the blur”

When I was 7 years old, we (4of my 5 brothers and me) were laying on our living room floor watching “The Virginian”.

My brother Dickie was laying there with his glasses sitting next to him. I put them on, looked around the house for a bit and realized everything was much clearer.

We had Lenten candles burning, which I looked at longer. I took the glasses off and on a few times- viewing the lovely candles. I liked them SO MUCH MORE with my glasses off. I liked the blur so much better.

I told my mom about it when my teacher told her I couldn’t

read the blackboard- about a YEAR later! I loved the blur. Still do. Thank you for the memory.
