It’s my living room, with my bedroom to the left, the hallway straight ahead, and way in the distance my bathroom – green walls and orange towels.
And … blue is in my kitchen!
I’m an unusual human being. I want things bright. I want contrast – red beside purple is pretty cool!
Sometimes I worry about the beigeing of my life. When I’m older, will I be too tired to stand out? Will I allow my soul to be muted, so I’ll fit together nicely with other people of the middle ground?
Will I be neither here nor there? Neither up nor down? Perhaps a “Nowhere Man”:
Sitting in his nowhere land
Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
No thanks
What if people in the time ahead don’t like my colours? Thinking that I should tone it down in my geriatric years? What if I’m perceived as “too much” – now and always?
Well … that may be true for some people but not all of them. I’m watching for the rainbow folks, within and without.
I know you’re there
Worry not. Beige will never encroach upon your life. Your colours are brilliant.
Thank you, Jeff. I’ll stay alert to beige creeping towards me.
