Leave Your Mark


From the beginning of time man has left his mark stating, "I was here." It appears in the petroglyphs of Arizona and the cave drawings of France; the pyramids and the Parthenon. The great novel, the unforgettable poem, the timeless painting are all examples of man's wish to be noticed. Once children learn to write, they leave their marks on every available surface---walls, furniture, sidewalks. Graffiti can be observed way too often on the sides of buildings, bridges and even on rail cars. Everybody is saying, "Here I am." What type of mark are YOU leaving for posterity?
