Every Tuesday, step by step, I’m walking with my readers from A to Z, last week we had “V” (visit tagged V), so this week we have “W” – I’m sure you’ll find a story or a short reflection tagged with “W”! Feel free to add in the comments below the link to your personal interpretation of the letter “W”!!! Myself I’ll feature “W” for discussing “WASTING TIME”:
WASTING TIME
three self portraits, featuring me: playing guitar, driving through my hometown, napping with my grandson – click on the triptych (all portraits shot by my wife Barbara) to enter the frizztext galleries at flickr.com

I’ll not know what to play with guitar and kazoo next week, for the letter X, but I beg your pardon, I know which ballad to play for the letter “W”: “When I get older, losing my hair …”
Hi Frizz, I love how you ‘waste’ time in these beautiful black and white photographs. My contribution this week is quite close to you: W is for Wall of Berlin. 🙂

If I had a word with W to chose, it would be Window ( http://icezine.wordpress.com/2012/12/20/week-51-windows/ ) because that’s what I have in front of me most of the time. Strange object… It separates us from the outside, another world, and it shows you so many things. Sometimes it’s a mirror, sometimes it’s dark. Sometimes it’s wide open, so wide you don’t know why there’s a window. Sometimes it’s always closed and you want a wall.
My picture shows another type of windows, to look at the sea or at the city the boat arrived.
