don't ask, I won't tell

I've been wearing this bracelet for almost eight weeks and no one, no one has even mentioned it. Nobody has asked me why I am wearing it or where it came from. I am not wearing it to get attention or to be noticed. But I am really surprised that, since I never wear bracelets, no one has noticed.

  1. You are incorrect, Pastor Rick. I did notice it. And I don't believe I'm the only one who has spotted it. I just didn't ask what it represents. I first caught sight of it the Sunday following your return from Peru (if memory serves me correct). I thought if we needed to know--you'd tell us. But now that YOU'VE brought it up--do tell!

  2. Come to think of it, you didnt notice my new earrings last weekend either.
    ~ but how are we to know that you dont wear bracelets. It is the "latest" fad and you are the trendy kinda guy.

    I hope you know we're kidding, and now we're super curious to know the meaning of it!

  3. Paola, Actually I did notice your earrings but I thought you were just borrowing them from Mike.

  4. The bracelet has only sentimental value. Jessica tied it on my wrist on the first day of our Inca Trail Hike. We bought it at our first resting place from a young Indigenous mom who was selling stuff she had made. Every time I see it, I am reminded of the special time we enjoyed in Peru. I plan to leave it on until it rots off. How long does cheap yarn last?
