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.

Becca, how beautiful blue things are for me...it's just that it's my favorite color. The sky, the sea, what that color means, which is not sadness as some people say out there.
Well there are many things to celebrate any given day under a blue sky, but there are some days more meaningful than others. You leave me a little intrigued 🙃, but I tell you that I share your happiness, whatever it is. And I'm so glad that day is the big day for you, and that special someone who accompanied you.
Thanks for sharing!
Blue is a beautiful and calming colour and I don't find it sad as you say also, it's more energising to me.
It was a nice day, a special one that was marked in a simple but enjoyable manner which suits me just fine. I'm looking forward to the weekend at the moment, but there's some work to do first.
I hope you're well.

I'm not the one saying it's sad, it's some people who see it that way.
Cheers Becca.
Yes, I am. Thank you.
Yes, I understood that.

Thank you for sharing these wonderful songs. A lot of times, the ones who keep you company can make a regular day awesome. A simple walk and lunch, can be a fun and interesting bonding experience.
I'd rather focus more on simple moments as I'm able to create them more easily and more often. My day as above was exactly what I needed and I enjoyed the simplicity of it greatly.

It's true, there are special days, though simple, but special for a reason, a detail that makes them that way, I know what you mean, it has happened to me. And it's possible that no one else knows it but your heart does and that's the most important thing of all.
Beautiful songs you chose, how beautiful is the blue, symbol of intelligence and tranquility.
On the other hand the blue sky is a witness of what you carry in your heart. Beautiful photography Becca.
A big hug!❤️
Do you find colour effects your mood or influences it?

There is what is called chrome therapy, according to the colour an emotion is generated, for example if you need strength, red, yellow is wisdom and green is health, to give some examples.
I usually wear red or pink, pink is love.✨
Amen, beauty, happiness and contentment is in the simplest and free...
