What I don't wear much of is Red. Orange, Purple. Bright colors. I wonder sometimes if it's because I've always wanted to kind of blend in. To hide.
It's not that easy being green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer being red, or yellow or gold
Or something much more colorful like that
It's not easy being green
It seems you blend in with so many other ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
Not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky...
But I want to be bright! To be like the colors of the rainbow. To find more times when I look to the skies after the rain to hopefully glimpse a rainbow, and smile!
Kermit sang this. And I know that even if I don't always wear bright clothes, that there are parts of my spirit that are brighter than anything I could have ever imagined. Getting brighter every day when I realize that I have more hope than I've ever had in my life.
Frustrating days come, and we have to go through those. I just want to take the hand of the one I love, walk and talk, smile and laugh!
The lovers, the dreamers and ME!
