Some times in life colors all blend together and the great feats of nature and man seem mundane and trivial. At what point do trees become un-interesting, when every last one is different? When do you lose interest in problem solving when any problem has an unthinkable amount of solutions? Life being in the abstract, non-biological, is the interpretation of the one "living" it. Variety being the abstract "spice" of the abstract "life", and I a lover of spice, crave variety. Recently my view of variety has been aroused by one of the most beautiful vegetables I have ever seen, the purple cauliflower.

Now I have seen a lot of different plants in my life. I am a life long lover of nature, and have even worked on a farm, yet I have never seen purple cauliflower, and this puts a whole new spin on how i see other things. Well this little bit of acknowledgment has kicked my right brian into action.

Since my first encounter with the purple cauliflower I have been taking things more slowly and from an increased array of perspectives. Tomorrow I plan on eating the cauliflower and shall consider a variety of ways to perpare the dish. Which brings me back to variety, ummm. I had found the purple cauliflower when visiting a MOM's store I had never patroned.

Variety brings about more variety, but you must open up your boundaries to find it. Count the rings in a tree, count the trees in a ring. Count the rings in base 2, 8, 10, 16 and yes even 13.Anyways, go some where new find your purple cauliflower and notice the intricacies of life, because variety is a spice that grows every where. INSPIRATION!!!
