Your life is your artwork and you are to paint life as a beautiful struggle. With your brush, paint the colors of joy in vibrant shades of red. Color the sky a baby blue, a color as free as your heart. With rich, earthy tones shade the valleys that run deep into the ground where heaven meets hell. Life is as chaotic as the color black, a blend of all colors, and this makes life a beautiful struggle. Be grateful for the green that makes up the beautiful canvas, for nature has given you everything that you need to be happy. Most of all, don’t ever feel the need to fill the entire canvas with paint, for the places left blank are the most honest expressions of who you are. .Forrest Curran
About This Quote
The quote above is really cool, but it is also very simple. It tells us that life is not meant to be full of things that are not important, but rather to live life in the moment. Life is filled with struggles, and for this reason we should not feel the need to fill every piece of our lives with happiness. It would be better to experience joy in small doses, rather than having a constant smile on our faces. We are all different, and the important thing is to do what makes us happy.
