If I would tell you I could let you know.


















I used to be in the habit of asking "why" an awful lot.  I have learned that "why" is a futile question to ask.  Most of the time, the answer is a stark "because."  And then, when it isn't, there's one who knows the answer . . .

 . . . but he ain't telling.

What is it Pope says?
"In both, to reason right is to submit," or something like that.

My frustration was always the "who" question...as in, WHO did...?? My response is, I am not going to tell you. It does not matter "who" did it. Why questions are not all bad, but sometimes there just really isn't an answer, or at least a satisfying one.
