I LOVE soap bubbles. Look at the colors in these things! They're like delicate living things. They float and move and change colors. If you can follow one or if one alights on a surface and manages to stay whole for a minute you can watch the haze of colors swirling over the surface.
Soap bubble are a magical things to me - like airplanes. My logical brain knows that it's physics (and a lot of math stuff) with water and soap and surface tension and I know the are physical laws for for how planes fly, but to me it's just magic. I know how it works and I know why it works but I'm in awe that it happens.
I like holding on to that little-kid wonder and awe. It saves me from becoming depressingly cynical.
