I was looking at the Statue of Liberty the other day...I mean
really looking at it.
I kept thinking about the three symbols it has...
The torch for the powerful light of liberty...
The broken shackles for the freedom from oppression...
And the book for empowering knowledge...
Then I thought about the face. I always took the expression as sort of bold confidence but somehow now it looked more like cautious discernment to me.
Then I thought about all that copper...
I mused that if the country ever ran out of money they could melt the statue down to create a ton of pennies.
But it just didn't matter since I would run out of money way before the country ever did...
