The Colors Of My World

I am yellow.

Yellow is the color of my unrealistic optimism.  I wear these to see everything sunny, warm and bright.  You are over exposed and unnatural.  You are shiny and unreal but at the same time, interesting and contagious.  I feel high.

I am blue.

Blue is the color of my moodiness.  I put these on and see you through my drama.  I see and hear distrust and disapproval.  I am aware of your mood, your detachment and abstract vagueness.  I feel sad.

I am red.

Red is the color of my anger.  I put these on and see you through my rage.  You look aggressive, harsh and removed.  Your edges are sharp and restrictive.  I feel out of control.

I am gray.

Gray is the color of my complacency.  I put these on and see you as apathetic and uncaring.  You look uninteresting and dull.  I feel caught in a rut – a never-ending cycle of repetition and  monotony.  I feel hopeless.

I am black.

Black is the color of my sadness.  I put these on and see you as distant and unfeeling.  You are shadows and uncertainty.  You look scary and hostile.  I am afraid of the world.  I am undone.

I am pink.

Pink is the color of how I want my world to be.   I put these on and see you as healthy and whole.  I am also healthy and whole.  You are beautiful, created in a unique design.  I feel warm and fulfilled.  I hear joy and laughter in your voice, feel connected and safe with you.  I feel loved.

Dear Lord,

Help me to remove the colored glasses that hinder me from seeing things as they should be – and as they really are.   And wisdom to know the truth.  Amen

Which glasses do you wear most of the time?

God Bless

    I am Burgundy when I feel serious, contemplative, and professional. I am lime green when I feel artistic, silly, and casual.
