What Colors Are In Your Rainbow?



I love this picture of my cat. I did it in some special effects I believe which was metallic. It reminds me of a pen and ink drawing. I have a friend who lives in a very black and white world. There are no grey areas. There is right and wrong, and no room for any errors. I can not imagine living like that. I guess it is good to stand for what you believe, but there has to be leeway for change and growth. My friends have said that I am like a camelian. I can get along with anybody and always treat people the same no matter what their situation. I think we have to get out from under our safety net sometime, I do have friends from all different walks of life, it makes it a very colorful world. As far as I am concerned we are all given an opportunity to experience life to the fullest. Who needs rose colored glasses? I am finding I truly am liking blogland. I have meant some very interesting people, colorful, smart, creative, caring, intuitive, friendly, inspiring. I am finding it is an extremely colorful and cheery place to be. Today I recieved an inspirational email. It had a video of a gentleman with no limbs, he was playing a piano and speaking to a classroom and said sometimes in life you fall down, and he did. Then he showed them how he had to get back up. There was so much fight and determination in this man. Lots of the class were crying.....The message was no matter how far we fall we can get back up again. He was a very colorful man. I kept thinking about him today...what courage he had and what an opportunity he made for himself. We take the cards we are dealt and we play with them....fine tuning until we get it right. Out of a cloud of darkness there is always color and light .....Bright and cheery days are ahead for us all.

  2. Goodmning to you. Some people said a ago that i was all black and white. Maybe so but i think life has taught me there is no black and white. Life is a great teacher. My latest life lesson has shown me that true love is such a beautiful thing. I thought my chance at true love had passed me by. I had accepted that and had no regrets because i had being blessed with 2 wonderful children. I did however feel slighted as i always figured that i would pass thru this world without being loved the way i deserved. Imagine my delight to receive such a gift of true love at the age of 40. I believe, i believe, i believe too! that bright and cheery days are ahead for us all.

  3. Oh, I've seen that video -- wasn't that amazing?! Very helpful in dashing any ongoing self-pity parties, but way more than that, very uplifting and inspiring. I agree -- leeway is a wondrous tool, flexibility, just listening to others -- if you listen long enough you can almost always find a point of agreement -- if that's the grey area, then I'm immersed in it! I find it very colorful there, actually. Black and white is just another box to stay stuck in, and maybe most of that is fear? I'm truly glad you ventured out into bloglandia cuz I found you -- and as the cliche says, "SHE'S A KEEPER!!!!"

    I'm glad I found YOU.
