My Old Metal Suitcase
If you know my mother, you know she loves to tell stories. I on the
other hand can sit and listen to her talk about my family, it's members and the
events surrounding them for hours at a time. The perfect way to pass a
lazy Sunday afternoon. I have this old metal suitcase that is just stuffed
full of old photographs. There are tin types, Polaroid, 35mm, just about
any type of photograph that has been developed (yuk) in the last century is in
that old metal suitcase. I love going through the pictures and picking out
one, looking it over then I just hand it to my mother and she will usually start
out with ...
Oh... you know who this is don't you? This is a picture of...
Story
Movie
After she is done talking, I take the photograph back, look it over in a
whole new light Then I place it gingerly back in that old metal suitcase,
along with a whole new picture that has been painted in my mind.
