HEBREWS 12:15 Kay spent the day cleaning her apartment from top to bottom. It kept her busy, and by late afternoon, the kitchen floor shone and there wasn’t a stray blond hair anywhere in the bathroom. In the midst of her activity, she accumulated a few items to give Jake on Monday: two books on golf, a white T-shirt, a pair of brown socks, and a garish tie his mother had given him for his birthday. When she finished, the apartment was as cleansed from outward signs of Jake Wilson’s presence as... the home of an Orthodox Jewish housewife in preparation for Passover.
Pouring a glass of water, she sat in a padded chair on her balcony with a notebook and a pen. Instead of writing, she watched the activity in the parking lot beneath her. Groups of people came and went. A husband and wife with a baby in a stroller crossed the parking lot and drove away in a minivan. Birds darted through the trees. No one looked up. Kay was invisible in her isolation. A person alone is acutely aware of separation from others while the rest of the world passes by without taking notice.
