The Color of My Soul...

A friend remarked to me that they were surprised to see me attired in a color other than green. I smiled, wanting to tell them how much I love shades of brown, red, purple, and black. I held back for some reason, but their observation made me ponder why I love the color green, my signature color.

   When spring is in full bloom, the landscape is radiant with green, the barren winter forgotten for awhile. Green represents new beginnings, fresh hope, and if I led a life with no restrictions, I'd wear green every single day.

   Human emotions have colors to me, which inspired my first book 'The Colors of my Mind.' Red for passion, etc. Green is the color for being cool, like Fonzie. Lol. Green is for being different, unique, atypical, reminding me of a guy I see in the mirror everyday.

    When you see me wearing green on the weekend, or a wide smile plastered on my face while attired in kelly, or some other shade of green, know that I'm celebrating. I'm celebrating life, new beginnings, acknowledging my uniqueness, and looking pretty good whilst doing it.
