It all started when I went looking for a clean, high-res version of a logo U2 used on their album All That You Can’t Leave Behind. Just a little graphic for a side project. Nothing major.
But the search turned into something richer.
Before I get to that—here’s the logo I found (see above). There’s something simple and weighty about a suitcase with a heart in it, like a road sign that means more the longer you look.
I ended up finding not just the image, but a thoughtful piece reflecting on the lyrics of “Walk On.” And then I noticed who wrote it.
Gary D. Myers isn’t just a fan. He’s an archaeologist with twelve years of fieldwork in Israel. He has been digging at places like Tel Gezer and Tel Hadid. He’s also a PhD student working on a dissertation about the imagery in King Hezekiah’s royal seal. That caught my attention. First time I’ve seen the that kind of intersection of interests and background.
The mix of music, memory, scripture, and symbolism—the thing I always find myself drawn to.
I enjoy writing like this, the kind that slows you down and helps you notice. Thought you would, too.
If you’ve never heard the song, this one’s on me:
That’s it for now. Thanks for showing up. It matters.
