    Jayita Bhattacharjee

    Ruth Sawyer
    “It wasn’t just catching mackerel that made those dawns red-letter days for us. It was like watching the world being created anew to watch the sun come up -the orange streak changing to flames -orange, yellow, crimson; to watch the whole bay catch the glory of it – to watch the western sky take fire. People who don’t ever watch sunrises miss a lot of wonder.”
    Ruth Sawyer, Daddles: The Story of a Plain Hound-dog

    “This morning the sunrise splashed a brilliant red across a sleepy sky. And I wondered what right I had to such a breathtaking sight. As I pondered the thought, I realized that this was not some right that I possess. Rather, it was a gift that God bestowed.”

    without you.”

    Joy Harjo
    I will see you again, is one of the names for blue--

    “What if it's the there
    and not the here
    that I long for?
    The wander
    and not the wait,
    the magic
    in the lost feet
    stumbling down
    the faraway street
    and the way the moon
    never hangs
    quite the same.”
    Tyler Knott Gregson, Chasers of the Light: Poems from the Typewriter Series

    Rebecca Solnit
    “When you give yourself to places, they give you yourself back; the more one comes to know them, the more one seeds them with the invisible crop of memories and associations that will be waiting for when you come back, while new places offer up new thoughts, new possibilities. Exploring the world is one the best ways of exploring the mind, and walking travels both terrains.”
    Rebecca Solnit, Wanderlust: A History of Walking

    Rebecca Solnit
    “The world is blue at its edges and in its depths. This blue is the light that got lost. Light at the blue end of the spectrum does not travel the whole distance from the sun to us. It disperses among the molecules of the air, it scatters in water. Water is colorless, shallow water appears to be the color of whatever lies underneath it, but deep water is full of this scattered light, the purer the water the deeper the blue. The sky is blue for the same reason, but the blue at the horizon, the blue of land that seems to be dissolving into the sky, is a deeper, dreamier, melancholy blue, the blue at the farthest reaches of the places where you see for miles, the blue of distance. This light that does not touch us, does not travel the whole distance, the light that gets lost, gives us the beauty of the world, so much of which is in the color blue.

    For many years, I have been moved by the blue at the far edge of what can be seen, that color of horizons, of remote mountain ranges, of anything far away. The color of that distance is the color of an emotion, the color of solitude and of desire, the color of there seen from here, the color of where you are not. And the color of where you can never go. For the blue is not in the place those miles away at the horizon, but in the atmospheric distance between you and the mountains.”
    Rebecca Solnit

    Tyler Knott Gregson
    “I was always a thing
    that was going to happen to you,
    the lightening that would strike
    on a day that came
    with no thunder,
    and all the shelter
    in all the world couldn't have
    saved you.
    I've been making my way
    to you.”
    Tyler Knott Gregson

    “Throughout this journey of life we meet many people along the way.
    Each one has a purpose in our life.
    No one we meet is ever a coincidence.”
    Mimi Novic

    “Do you think the universe fights for souls to be together?
    Some things are too strange and strong to be coincidences.”
