If you go out into your yard, or a place where people have not sprayed chemicals on the grass, you might find tiny, beautiful, purple violets. If you pick some of these, you can make some super-cool, color-changing violet syrup. Here is a short video that will show you how to do this by Alexis Nicole (AKA the “Black Forager” - she’s also on Instagram) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLGdRoTuYLs
In this picture, Sarah and Sonja Noonan-Ngwane have been “foraging” - collecting violets and dandelions. (You can do something with dandelions another day!)
In the book, The Color Purple, Shug asks her friend Celie if Celie ever takes the time to notice all the things that show us that God loves us. She says, “I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it. People think pleasing God is all God cares about. But any fool living in the world can see it always trying to please us back.”
