What is Yellow to You?

It’s a warm afternoon; the birds are happily chirping on trees as if celebrating their freedom to fly. The sun is dancing on the bed of the ocean, and her warmth is gracing the curtains, the walls, and the white tiles of a well-loved home. There is happiness in the air. You would never know that the person enjoying this has had to go through so much and came out on the other side unfazed with this sight in mind.

Indeed, it is fascinating how different your life could turn out at a time like this in the future. How easily the worries of today will melt off your shoulders with time, only if you allow it. You are a dynamic individual full of experiences, feelings, and moments melted into one vibrant soul, traversing through the universe. Please acknowledge that you are alive; skin, bones, and flesh, taking every day as the gift that it is. Giving your life meaning and refusing to succumb to helplessness.

There will be times when the universe will root for you and fate says it’s your time, the only thing needed is your grit and your determination to claim happiness. And, If ever a color could contain happiness, yellow would be it.

Yellow is the sun at midday. Hot, vibrant, and all-consuming. She demands that you smile at strangers and that you stay positive amdist tough times. That you don’t let the trivialities of day-to-day life consume you and never think of yourself as a being separate from the universe or the activities you partake.

Honorable Happiness

Why then do we limit ourselves to either successes and failures of the things that we do? Put yourself out there and enjoy your time in the sun. Strive in discovering your purpose because the joy of the endeavor lies in detail, in toil, in work, in being reduced to nothing but a doer of actions for a greater good. Indeed, using your hands and mind to derive the desired result from any work is honorable: it is an act of worship.
