Color and Beauty

As summer comes on, color insists we pay attention. These June days, the mix of dead grasses turning gold and red, and the greens of new growth, just stun me. 

“Beauty is the harvest of presence, the evanescent moment of seeing or hearing on the outside what already lives far inside us… beauty is the conversation between what we think is happening outside in the world and what is just about to occur far inside us.” (David Whyte, Consolations)
