Quote of the day: “I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don’t notice it.” ~ Alice Walker The Color Purple

Pretty Purple Iris

I’ve been thinking of springtime, so in my mind’s eye, I imagine fields of purple iris, the scent of lovely lilacs in bloom, and fragrant purple hyacinths.  Purple is a powerful color and I love it! This week I’ve been playing with photographing a small bouquet of purple iris.  Mmmmm…. lovely.

Yesterday, when I set the vase of flowers on a chair briefly while re-arranging the table, Gracie the cat immediately came to investigate.  Cats are known for curiosity, but aren’t we all curious?  When I watch my grandkids, they are full of endless curiosity about the world and pepper their parents with endless Why’s.  It is through curiosity that we learn and explore and grow.  Here’s to purple and here’s to curiosity!  May you discover something to be curious about today.

Hmmm.. what's this?
