Black & White

Do you dream in color… do you dream in black and white? One thing’s for sure… life is beautiful, and that is black and white, plain and simple. Beauty however… comes in many colors. We as individuals must learn to recognize the colors and appreciate life. Things change with time… as the leaves fall to the ground, the leaves change in color… showing the beauty that lies beneath. Though things may not always be the same… things may not always look as they did, there is beauty that lies beneath. There are amazing things to uncover. Though it is not always evident, it is important that we look for the colors which can make life beautiful.

Recognize the colors of your life now… and appreciate them. Do not live life caught up in the search for the pot of gold and miss out on the beauty of the rainbow… Let’s embrace our youth and the spring of our lives… embrace the beauty of fall… as in the winter of our lives, its too late to search through the white and find the things we missed out on appreciating in the summer months. Take advantage of every day of every season, as time presses on no matter what, a day ends with one to follow. No way to look back, and no assurance that you’ll be part of the one which follows.

The beauty in our lives can be found in many places, taking colors from those who surround us, we’ll have a beautifully colored palate and our life is gigantic canvas for us to paint the picture of our life on. Never neglect the colors… and avoid conservative use of the canvas… its enormous. Try new things, and embrace what we create. There are little mistakes along the way, but they can be covered up and just a part of the process. There are portions which you may love better than others, but they all contribute to the whole picture. Appreciate the colors… step back and look onto your work of art.

Stand out… be colorful and be noticed. Thank everyone who’s given you a color to use… thank those who’ve filled up your picture with beautiful colors, memories and have made your art beautiful. Thank those who’ve helped put beautiful images on your canvas. Thank those who’ve guided your brush… thank those who’ve fueled your desire to paint... look to those who you’ve painted beautiful things for… and when you’re done you’ll see that you’ll have a beautiful work of art filled with memories, love, friendship, hope, faith and so much more. Make sure your canvas isn’t plain, make sure it’s colorful, and make sure that it is representative of your vision. Never forget the process and never forget… the beauty that lies beneath.
