The Power of Pigment

This past week I enjoyed a field trip to the Skagit Valley south of where I live here in northwest Washington.  This area is known as the tulip capital of the world.  As you approach the flowering fields, strips of pigment stun your view!  Fields of red, yellow, purple, pink and multi-colored tulips overwhelm you with their color.  It's a feast for the eyes!!  

In a world where the news is usually grim and tiresome, taking time out to stop and smell the roses, in this case, the tulips, is a renewing activity.  

Live bravely and beautifully!
