The Happiness of Purple

Can a color be enough to make you happy?  It's worth considering.  What if simply adding a favorite color to your day can improve your happiness quotient?

I love colors, especially royal colors from royal purple, to royal blue, to royal red.

And it's the narrowing of the range of the color palette in the winter that presents a challenge for me.

So this summer, I'm being strategic.  I'm capturing my favorite colors through photographs that I'm turning into decorations for the rooms of my office and my home.  After all, we still have more than 320 days to go for our challenge!

Blue! Where do you see this blue? Is it only in the skies; in a Hollister shirt; in a baby's eyes? Nothing could please me more than such a pleasant day at Seabreeze with two of my best friends.

They're wonderful girls. It was a wonderful day. 

I couldn't ask for anything more. Remember the things you adore, and you will always appreciate them. In photos, in the paint of your office, in the sand grains found three months later in your car, there are smiles. Always.
