Thanks to www.artunivers.com, one of Magritte's Treachery of ImagesDear reader, it seems that I have already resorted to the use of images rather than words, and done so in five posts or less. Truly, the only surprise is that it did not occur sooner.
It has been my habit to set the timer and to write during that proscribed time: no more, no less. The post that I began working on yesterday addresses the issue of images, words, and the someplace between the two. I've exceeded my time limit yesterday and today.
Yesterday I posted an image; today another. Both will have to speak for me until the timer is set tomorrow, dear reader. I'm glad to have your patience.

Sometimes pictures (or signs, or gestures) can speak very effectively for a person. You already know this from your work with autistic children. So you should have no reservations about resorting to using pictures.
"Words are only painted fire; a look is the fire itself." -- Mark Twain (in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court)
I really enjoy this quote from Twain; he is someone whose words I encounter and think, I need to find out more about this writing, and then I forget. So thank you!
