It’s summer time, and the girls are swarming. Bless all the poor boys who claim an address on this dead-end street. Girls rule around here.Bare feet, sun-dried hair and tanned limbs. It’s the way of the cul-de-sac. Most days the doorbell rings before breakfast. They’re ready to play.

How do you remember Truth?
I have a friend who recently lost her husband to cancer. She wears this bracelet as a reminder of Truth. (That’s not her hand. It’s mine. The chewed up thumb gives me away every time.)
