About This Quote

We spend so much time in our world of smartphones, tablets, laptops, and computers that we forget what it’s like to look at the world around us in all its amazing splendor. When we step outside into the real world, the colors are richer and deeper. They are vivid and intense. We feel like we can reach out and touch them. That’s what makes them seem real when you watch them with your own eyes.
