‘INFINITE FREEDOM’
The color of the sky symbolizes infinite freedom to me.
It reminds me of how tiny we are in this enormous universe and how everything in it is connected to one another.
It is the color of hope and dreams.
As long as the sun comes up and we see this color in the sky, we know there’s yet another day given to us, full of life and possibilities.
Out of all the colors in my embroidery kit, the light blue hues of the sky always seem to run out first.
It’s a color I just can’t get enough off.
