Painting in Modern Color
2 min readMar 8, 2022
When you remove yourself completely of all that is of the familiar, all becomes a blank canvas demanding modern color.
Within the past forty-eight hours since removing myself from the familiar of twenty-four years, I’ve come to find a few new colors to paint with:
- Support looks different from person to person
- Most people are good at heart, we are simply too quick to judge and in accepting these premature judgements as the truth
- Perceiving the world through a single dimension is insidiously self-destructive
- Taking a step back (or a few thousand ft. in the air) from a situation will show you just how menial it really is
- Reminding yourself how small you are in a great world is humbling and helps realign values
- All humans obtain akin chemical makeup, physical appearance and where one comes from does not create a barrier of difference
- When searching for a place in an unknown environment, pay the extra money for an Uber, cab, etc. to get to your final destination
- If you don’t have a car, order delivery for heavier grocery items (trust me, it’s worth every penny)
- We owe it to ourselves to follow our heart’s plan
- I want to live in a big city
- Coffee is just as good at night as it is in the morning
- When getting on a bus, find a seat and do it fast
- The “now and fast” mentality with obtaining is destructive in various ways
