Just a few feet from our driveway is this cryptic spray-painted message. Actually, in my personal experience, 97% of all such street-sprays, including the yellow one a few feet beyond, are cryptic. I’m assuming—and hoping—that the green one squarely on top of the manhole cover relates either to sewer or water.

Anyway, the “Ifs” message seems to be not only cryptic but doubt-ridden, as though there are too many unknowns (“ifs”) to be absolutely sure of what’s under the pavement at that point.

Obviously, there’s a true meaning to the “Ifs” symbol, even though I may never know what it is. But one thing I’m sure of is that doubt and uncertainty can lead to the feeling that truth cannot be known. But my Bible assures me otherwise. Take a moment to click on each of the three links below.
