“I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don’t notice it.” – Alice Walker, The Color Purple
Twice in the past few days I’ve walked into our bathroom to find a golden autumn leaf delicately balanced on the open windowsill, that’s blown down from a tree outside the window. Here’s today’s leaf in the photo above. It’s like a gift from “God”, the Universe, whatever you choose to call it, given for no particular reason. Maybe to wake me up a little bit.
“[God] is always making little surprises and springing them on us when us least expect….” – The Color Purple
