I love green. It happens to be my favorite color. To me, it represents life, beauty, vitality, hope, expectancy. Every time I see a little green leaf appear on a tree after a harsh winter, I know that the times for new beginnings are near. There are so many different shades. The Evergreens speak endurance, Olive green like oil for your soul, Basic Green like energy, Forest green of mystery, Neon green like hyper happiness, Apple green deliciously teasing. And let's not forget Kermit the Frog Green, for the common everyday person that blends into the world around them. I don't know, but when I wear it, I feel refreshed and whole like a flower fulfilling its purpose. It has nothing other than the responsibility of standing and growing and yet, without them, our world is lacking something.
So here I am in my green sweater dress, enjoying my day in the freshness and cool sunlight of the beginnings of fall in South Portland. It's nothing extravagant. Nothing to brag about. But it's me feeling comfortable among the trees and grass and breeze. That's the way we should dress when we're not busy falling in line with the business of life. We have to break from our routine and put on a kick-back outfit and just be. Just Breathe. Just sit a little while and be no one else but who we are.
That is green. Living life and loving living. Not just existing.
When's the last time you had a Green Day?
The best part yet:
Is that the cost of me to blend in with the world around me, was just 1 dollar, and the time it took me
to look up and find one item out of place, in the midst of a shoe rack, and realize it was a gift just for me,
that came unexpectedly.
