For the past 20 years or so I’ve always kept paints with colors thinking that I might use them one day.  That’s what happened last week.  I think blue is a sort of unusual color.  It can be so vibrant and beautiful.  But it’s also very common.  It’s the color of the sky.  It’s the color of our planet.  It’s just there no matter what happens to our personal lives or to the collective life of our species.  The association to the depth, the size and the sense of time is sort of scary while it’s also comforting and wonderful.
