RDP Friday: BLUE
I am a person who enjoys dark, cloudy skies and the deep rich colors of the fall- reds, orange, green and the color black and every shade of it that lives in that particular household.
But I also love the color blue, it calms my brain when I am anxious, I can taste it when I am outside and take a deep breath ( it tastes like raspberries just before they get mushy and inedible ).
Blue is a friendly color, it’s soft and sturdy , it’s reassuring. When blue talks it sounds like crickets.

Blue is a friendly color, until as the saying goes, it isn’t:
The ice-choked lagoon called Jökulsárlón formed in the 1920s when part of the massive Vatnajökull glacier began to pull away from the salt water of the Atlantic Ocean on Iceland’s southeastern coast. The depression left in the land gradually filled with melting ice, and by 1934, Iceland had a new glacial lagoon. As other glaciers in the icefield calve, hunks of ice plunge into Jökulsárlón, reflecting the blue water and creating a breathtaking scene popular with visitors to the nearby Vatnajökull National Park.
