Weathered

Greyed, sun-checked, porous and thirsty, protection against the elements compromised – these are the characteristics of worn-out wood. Once it proudly served its purpose against time, sun, and rain – but those very things have taken their toll. Effectiveness is a dim memory.

It happens with age to everything. It happens with age to everyone. None is immune. Eventually what is left is to gaze wistfully at what had been. Existing with diminished purpose.

To prompt self-reflection … perhaps that is now its purpose.
