"I think it pisses God off when you walk by the color purple in a field and don't notice it." A quote from that terrible movie yet incredible novel, The Color Purple;) However terrible the film may be, that line has stayed with me for years. Why bring it up Emily? you ask.
I was laying by my pool in the Tucson sun and noticed how calm the water was. As I was thinking about it my dog walked over and began slowly lapping the water with his tongue which created these perfect water rings around him, disrupting the calm. It was so strangely beautiful and it was beautiful because i was aware of these 2 minutes of time that seemed timeless. Can you see how the quote ties in here?
Purple is such a deep color and people resonate with it...but is it beautiful when in a field of purple flowers, you walk by them with out looking at all the different shades of purple they are, what time of day it is and how the sun hits the petals, inhaling the purple flower scented air? It is of course still beautiful even if you're not aware of it but why miss out on the color purple? It's just waiting there, smiling at you, there to please and thats it. Life is beautiful ya'll. Stop and smell the roses.
Love Em
