Carol Perkins, Perfect Vision Perfect Vision -Carol Perkins The next earlier Carol Perkins story: Affairs to Remember By Carol Perkins Perfect vision. I once had it, but when I turned forty, my vision gradually began to blur. I went instantly from good vision to bifocals. All of a sudden, I couldn't read the menu in a restaurant without holding it at arm's length. I couldn't read the newspaper or a novel without finding the right distance. Evidently, I wore out my eyes reading hundreds of students' essays during those first twenty years of my career. For whatever the reason, I joined the world of my mother and father the day I put on my first pair of glasses.

Rev. Joey N. Welsh: Robert L. Surtees Another Angle. Keen Eyes, striking images: part I was first published 27 August 2006 in the Hart County News-Herald To see other articles by this author, enter "Rev. Joey N. Welsh," or "Another Angle," in the searchbox. The next earlier essay posted on ColumbiaMagazine.com is On temperance By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh Proverbs 25:11 tells us that, "A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver." That brief verse says a lot about the beauty of the right word spoken in the right way at the right time. The image that comes to my mind when I read that verse, which speaks of language as an attractive depiction, also reminds me that a skillfully composed picture can be quite stunning and meaningful.
