The clover was green not red this March19th






















A Dentist day for me. I guess if ever a blog proves beyond any doubt that it is not going anywhere in the world of literature this one will prove that today. Seems like you never know what is worth reading. Some blogs have in fact been real launch pads for books, articles and so on. A guy in Utah went to Iraq and posted some thoughts on a blog every month or so. Then he came home and still did the same thing. His blog was "black" and he talked a lot about gunfire, weapons, and life in the zone. Hundreds of thousands of people have logged on to read about him. The blog achieved the distinction of having the most visits in some way at one point. I am not sure how so many people found his blog and it also seems surprising that his audience seemed to have grown and grown even though he only writes something about once a month.
This guy now has a book agent. He was written up in Newsweek or maybe it was "Time". He has been on TV and made several newspaper articles. Guess his thoughts have a broad appeal. You will see, if you click the address I have included, that he does have a great blog layout. I am not fond of black blogs but then he is the successful blogger.
Anyway today for me in my particular chain of events my story is about Green. A brighter Green like you see with the red grid above. Sort of round. Could have been a clover? Probably not.
Often I see Red as a color when I close my eyes. Sometimes Yellow. I just don't recall ever seeing Green after closing my eyes. Sometimes I try to think back about dreams I have had and it is hard to remember a dream's colors? Remembering is different than seeing.
Today with the help of some "gas" from the dentist along with a bunch of shots I relaxed and closed my eyes. As I sat there I saw Green.
There you go. This is it. This is a blog of a Monday experience. I wish I had more for anyone who has read this far today.
I did find it interesting thinking about the dental assistant who when I just mentioned that I was seeing green images she decided to tell me that just yesterday she said she sort of dosed off in her church during a sermon and recalled seeing Green?
What does this mean? Perhaps it is just a omen of St Patrick influence this time of year?
