Somethings in life are easy to take for granted because we don't know it in any other way. There are so many things that fall in these categories and it may vary from person to person and situation to situation but what stands out to me this morning is color. Can you imagine our world in black and white? There are some people who know a side of this, due to color-blindness but for most of us it would be hard to imagine walking through a day of various hues of grey. Looking outside it would be easy to say on this foggy morning there are green and brown colors out there. Yet in reality there are many shades of greens and browns, as well as grey and blues in the sky, tiny purple flowers, yellowish tones to the new deck wood, and a variety of colors in the birds that fly by the window. Ask someone what color the sky is and they will most likely tell you blue. Yet the sky is full of blues, whites, grey, and even purples, pinks, reds, and oranges depending on the time of day and weather.
I'm so grateful to see in color. I'm so grateful to walk through this world of color. I'm grateful for the pink clouds last night to the East that mirrored the beauty of the sunset. I'm grateful for the bright yellow Easter basket sitting on my table and the orange of the dried mangoes in it. I'm grateful for the red hearts that adorn the cereal box and the soft green of my bowl. I'm grateful for the blue thank you card I received in the mail the other day and even the warm tan of the walls. There is color all around me and it is so beautiful!
When was the last time you stopped to appreciate all the colors around you? How many colors can you see right now? Color can be such an easy way to shift your mood and your environment. If you work in a space with bland colors and are looking for a way to cheer up the space, try adding color. If you do not have control over the walls then bring the color in with your clothes or a picture frame.
May you take the time to appreciate the beautiful world of color around you. May your day be brightened by the colors you see. Have a beautiful day!
