Blue Sky


"Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distance continue, a wonderful living side by side can grow, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky." Rilke


A vast expanse.  


The blue we see in the sky is beautiful but the sky is actually colourless. It appears blue based on the phenomenon called Rayleigh Scattering. Here is a nice little link explaining all the details: why is the sky blue?


"This is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet." Rumi

i think we also see the beauty of the sky through its ability to transform.  Its transformation can be seen as a form of magic.
