On a cruise ship, holding folded deck chairs Lucy says to Charlie, "Some people like to put their chair in the front to see where they are going. Others put their deck chair in back to see where they have been. Which are you Charlie?" Charlie replies, “I don’t know, I can’t figure out how to get my deck chair open.”

Aren’t some days like that? Everyone else seems to know where they are headed or grasping great wisdom from where they have been, but just opening the deck chair may be the biggest challenge of the day.

Tracks certainly aren’t anything like a cruise ship, but they do seem to create a curiosity for the future and a wondering of the past.
