WWC#45: Permanently Temporary

The words this week are Temporary and Permanent. 
I am reminded of the lyrics to the RUSH song “Circumstances”

Plus ca change
Plus c’est la meme chose
The more that things change
The more they stay the same.

in a few years, this will be a distant memory

 

 

I look at my boys growing up so very fast, the oldest two becoming young men…and I know that it won’t be long before they are all grown and gone. 

 
Children are both temporary (they grow up and move out) and permanent (they never cease to be your children).

TEMPORARY message

 

 

 

 

Writing in snow (or sand) must be considered temporary literature.

 Youthful beauty is fleeting, temporary, and mostly in the eye of the beholder.  I almost didn’t use this picture of my aging hand.  My wedding ring could use a cleaning. 

Yet this picture shows a double meaning of permanent:  I don’t ever want to remove my wedding ring, and I don’t think it could be taken off if I tried!

...GO!!!!

We told all the boys they had to be touching MusicMan before they started their Reptile Egg Hunt.  Poor MM…
At least it was only temporary!

And then there is the newest resident in Kcinnova’s World.  You will have to decide which word fits him!

Yes, SnakeMaster got a reptile for his birthday.  BUT NO SNAKES!!!!
