by the way,
what of the extinction of colour?
colour which is the cultural representation of what we mean
through its absorbency
and concentration,
does it mature?
once again, greeks stand inbetween
indifferently staring into the void
it seems we cannot live (any longer) by any colour extreme
we cannot experience it trully
nor can we recognize the subtle hues the tranquility and intensity
of the non-colour. It is embarrassing.
Only yesterday our grandmothers painted their houses pink and green and created rugs in all colours (together)
only yesterday they painted streets white, it was a preparation for every big fest
(and were dressed in black as a remembrance of our nature and ancestors)
they seemed to know when to paint in colour, when to rely on whiteness' usefulness, how to stand on the ground and under the sun.

I think it is not colour...it is light. You have an special light, that invites colours out. Where they feel confortable. In the other hand if you travel north for example, light is different and colours are more quite, calm and sometimes are lost in millions of white spots.
It is more light. What opens or closes windows of colour.
Have a great weekend my friend...full of colours, words and images.
can it be that here, in this world, we are covered over -too much of everything- we have lost the ability to appreciate simple things and traditions? lost the basic values? and we have no longer the connection with the knowledge that we have inside us?
asks this quite tired old friend of yours. take care!
