Green

I love using the color green. While helping me take down a tent in my verdant backyard, my (now) husband on our first date asked me what my favorite color was. 
Up to that point I'd never had a favorite color, so I said that God's favorite color was green. 
Little did I know then the irony of that statement. 
Green is like wearing cotton; it is dependable, the perfect mixture of calm comfort and fun. To me, something is right with Green when in nature's palette it is as essential as water.

What is real...

Yet another insight in the bathroom before running off to class... 
First of all, I have not been able to follow a graffiti conversation since seventh grade, when a bathroom stall was more of a social network than facebook.

I have to admit that the maturity of content (if not method) of stall graffiti has improved since middle school. Instead of "I [heart] Stephen Camp" and "F*** Veronica Little" I entertain my short hygiene moment with inspirational axioms, witty phrases, and philosophical musings.  

What I read today made me laugh. 

She said she cried at least once each day not because she was sad but because the world was so beautiful and life was so short.
Life is too short to cry about it being short. ENJOY EACH DAY  
stop trying to be so deep. This is a bathroom stall
Yo. If you can't be real in a bathroom stall, where are you going to get real?






Haha. Point taken.
