The Color Of Hope ...

   “We have this hope

         as an anchor for the soul …”

               ~ Hebrews 6:19

                 ~ The Holy Bible

Hope is colored in pink on this painted rock I spotted during Breast Cancer Awareness Month in early October at Trexler Memorial Park, Allentown, Pennsylvania.

This painted rock is likely part of the The Kindness Rocks Project, which was founded by Megan Murphy of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, who wanted to spread encouraging messages to strangers by writing them on rocks she found on the beach. The practice spread and launched similar projects across the United States.

The grassroots project encourages people to leave rocks painted with inspiring messages along the path of life. People are encouraged to take one, share one or add to the pile. You can see just how much impact she’s made when looking up #TheKindnessRocksProject. Learn more about how to join the movement at http://thekindnessrocksproject.com.

 

Summer Vibes ...

“I’m pickin’ up good vibrations …”

     ~ “Good Vibrations”

  ~composed by Brian Wilson,

           lyrics by Mike Love

      ~ The Beach Boys

       ~ 1966

The light of a looming late summer sunset flirts with these fuchsia flip flops, seemingly left behind after a day of summer fun on the banks of the Jordan Creek at Trexler Nature Preserve, Schnecksville, Pennsylvania in early September.

On the color wheel fuchsia is located between pink and purple, which means it can be thought of as a meeting point between the two shades. However, in everyday use, fuchsia is commonly thought of as a bright shade of pink.

It's Cherry Blossom Time ...

“Came the spring with all its splendor,

All its birds and all its blossoms,

All its flowers and leaves and grasses.”

                 ~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

                              ~ 1807-1882
