Week 3, Thing 5

Love notes for Juliet
Originally uploaded by Torve

Having a new baby, and family spread all over, I have become pretty familiar with Flickr over the past few months. However, I had never before searched through for images other than my own or my sister's.

I promise I did not search only my daughter's name, but unsurprisingly (at least to me) the most interesting photo I found came from that search. This shot of a wall in Verona, purported to be THE Juliet's home, is of hundreds of love notes stuck up with chewing gum.

While the gum part squicks me out some, I just love the idea of this wall and knowing that something like this exists in the world is a bright spot amidst the past grim days.
