A beautiful spring day yesterday. Lots of sunshine. Late afternoon, sitting on a bench, looking at the lake, big, beautiful, very still. My friend and I spent lots of time contemplating the color blue. Shades of blue. How many shades of blue are possible? It seemed like an essential question. There was an amazing spectrum of blue. Infinitesimally light blue, to super dark midnight blue and everything in between. There was something profound about the blue. It opened us, soothed us. It seemed important to take it in, experience it, let it wash over and thru us. Blue. The world and wonder of blue.
