A Canadian Association


A Canadian Association

Words connect thoughts. Thoughts connect people. 
People connect names and places and faces. 
People usually prefer to stay connected.

People connect with this land too. With the trees and the lakes and the rocks.
Stones are just rocks with some sort of human connection.
Walls connect people who like stones.

Walls collect stones. They collect history.
They collect meaning and associations.
The fondest and truest associations are usually the first.
