You see them once on a busy street, you see them everyday at home, school, or work; the faces of an epoch. Images are engraved of friends and relatives. Their ever-changing expressions and glances be- come as the words written here. Their smiles are yours as are their tears. Faces of age lined with time, scarred with sorrow, worn with care. Faces of youth aglow with ambition, alive with expectancy, flushed by activity. Yet years pass and the image is worn smooth by the tide of on-rushing faces: faces in a passing car, the salesgirl, the man beside you on an airplane, the barber, the kaleidoscopic faces on the television screen. Unfamiliar, threatening, strange, impelling you to seek the security of the unobtainable past. But, retracing your path back to yesterday, reveals only disappoint- ment for the face of time moves swiftly. Yet again the tide is changed, and what was foreign becomes a part of yourself. Re- molding old ideals, widening views, increas- ing comprehension, the new faces soon re- flect your own. Just as Sunday becomes Monday and Monday veils memories of Sun- day forever, so the timelessness of faces emerges upon your life anew each day. Some faces remain ever impressed in your life. And others, though seen daily become masked by impatience, busy everyday rou- tine, or indifference. They are obscurities to be answered, instructed, tolerated, and even loved; and later they hide from mem- ory. Yet, life is perpetual in their absence. Faces lost from sight, lost from mind for- ever. Faces molded into the mind's eye, molded into life. Then darkness descends. Beyond, perhaps eternal night, perhaps only dim senses, perhaps an existence without faces. --Clareen Larrick, editor 3
