Color Coordinated Lou
After a long winter with a color scheme based on white, grey, black, brown, and on a good day blue, the coming of spring is eagerly awaited. Spring brings a full spectrum of color for weary eyes.
Last month, before the world revived, Minnesotans had reached the breaking point. The air may have been cool and the threat of snow real, but by God there was going to be COLOR! We’ll act like spring is here where it is or not.
And there was the little girl Lou. She is like the first crocus, appearing unexpectedly in her brilliant colors. I was enchanted by her matching sunglasses.
Children are the flowers of society’s garden. They thrive when we, all of us, respond to them with love and nurturing. There are no weeds in our collective garden, only flowers that have been deprived of the love and support that they need to grow strong and beautiful. These aren’t new thoughts but they are worth repeating.
