"I think it pisses God off
if you walk by the color purple in a field
and don't notice it."
Alice Walker, The Color Purple

Imagine if we we visiting a place for the first time and were struck by the vibrancy, the energy and the qualities of the people. In that situation everything would seem more real, more alive. There would be such a sense of wonder.
Today let us look at each experience as if for the first time: Open our eyes, pause, wonder, notice the details, celebrate life.
