Widow's Walks - Yarmouth Nova Scotia

A widow's walk also known as a "widow's watch" (or roofwalk) is a railed rooftop platform often with a small enclosed cupola frequently found on 19th-century North American coastal houses. A popular romantic myth holds that the platform was used to observe vessels at sea. The name is said to come from the wives of mariners, who would watch for their spouses' return, often in vain as the ocean took the lives of the mariners, leaving the women widows. In other coastal communities, the platforms were called Captain's Walk, as they topped the homes of the more successful captains; supposedly, ship owners and captains would use them to search the horizon for ships due in port. #lynnhemeon

어쩌면 누구나 주홍 글씨 (The Scarlet Letter)를 지니고 있다.
아무것도 모르고 순수했던 어린 시절을 지나 우리는 어른이 되었다.
떳떳하고 당당한 사람도 있겠지만, 어쩌면 가슴에 하나쯤은 남들에게 보이고 싶지 않은 비밀이
있을지도 모릅니다.
남들에게 보여지면 놀림 당할까봐, 손가락질 당할까 봐 숨기게 되는 것.
지금 우리가 살고 있는 사회라는 규율 안에서
깊숙이 숨어있는 현대인의 욕망같은 것.
그게 바로 '주홍글씨'가 아닐까요?
어른이 된다는 건,
보이지 않는 주홍 글씨를
하나씩 가슴에 매달게 되는 것.
