Underneath the blue

It was blue, vibrant blue and I was underneath it enjoying simple but significant moments.

I'm a simple girl and don't need much to make a day feel special; each day seems that way to me, or at least I try to find something in my day to make it so. Doing that helps me find many more special moments and keeps me actively moving towards them, but sometimes a day itself is special and must be marked in some way.

Recently I had one of those days, a day of the year which has become special because of the events that occurred upon that day. To mark it I went for a walk to a lovely garden not too far from home with someone special and we did so under the most vibrant blue skies. It was simple...just us, nature, the warming sunshine and that lovely blue sky above then later some lunch...it wasn't extravagant, costly or complicated it was simple and that allowed me to think about the significance of the day, the reason it was special to me and the years over which the day has been so.

I was thinking about sharing some music and decided I'd run with the blue theme and share the three tracks below. Two of them are from my playlists and one I looked up today making it new to me, a new favourite, I think would be fair to say.

Today is a new day, the sky is still blue and I still seek something special, but the other day was something different, a day I've signalled out as one of the most significant in my life over the years, however I believe every day to be precious and so worthy of being thought of as special. A person's life doesn't always play out underneath blue skies, things are not always happy and neither do they always go our way, but through seeking something special from each day we can help move them towards being a little better...even when grey coouds form and rain falls.
