Grant, this is really great. I have a homemade riddle for you.
Okay.
This one comes from Amanda Burrokin of Oconomowoc, Wisconsin.
Oconomowoc.
And she made up this riddle. I love it. Here it goes.
I begin at the end. I am constant, but never the same.
I am frequently captured, but never possessed.
What am I?
I begin at the end.
I begin at the end.
I begin at the end.
I’m constant but never the same.
I’m frequently captured but never possessed.
Whoa, I don’t know.
I’m thinking time, a river, breath, air.
This is pretty good.
Life, photos.
Oh, gosh, you’re so close.
You always say that and I’m usually very far.
Well, it kind of depends.
I open at the end.
It’s a snitch, a golden snitch.
No.
I don’t know.
What is it?
A sunset.
I begin at the end.
I’m constant but never the same.
I’m frequently captured but never possessed.
And judging by my Facebook feed, I mean, everybody’s posting sunset photos all the time.
That’s the thing in San Diego, right?
Right?
Right?
But I really like that.
That’s a homemade riddle.
It should be on Etsy.
It feels like it’s been around for a thousand years.
That’s how good it is.
I know.
Way to go, Amanda.
