I had an “embarrassment of riches” in beauty in the past few days. Why is it an “embarrassment” of riches??? Supposedly too much of a good thing, however given the current situation of reality: inflation, more Covid, the pro choice rights being brutally hacked and dismantled, the prospect of a certain person running again for re-election, etc., how can there be too much beauty in the midst of ugly reality? Isn’t art and inspiration and beauty here for a reminder that joy and creativity and beauty are also real and exist in this sorry excuse for a country? Does not the little green sprout rising up from a crack in the concrete sidewalk, not given care nor nourishment nor a welcoming environment, inspire hope right now?
