Tortuga Brown

I just got back from an island in the Caribbean where I was vacationing.

My favorite moment of the trip was catching a sea turtle, lifting it out of the water, and for the first time in my life seeing the color brown as a beautiful color.

Why did it take so many years to notice?

Brown is no longer neutral, dull, boring. It is now a color, thanks to a random encounter with a sea turtle.

And I am changed.
