I have decided that status quo can cause fatigue. I feel so tired just thinking about the fact that tomorrow will be the same as today, as it was yesterday and will be the day after tomorrow. The thought of the daily routine washes over me like dirty rain water - gray, sludgy, dull. Although organization was once my preferred religion, lately I have become somewhat disillusioned by it's rigidity. I find myself feeling constrained, bound by the ties of habit. Colors show up in the form of change, where a slip in the pattern reveals a patch of brightness. I hold that patch up to my face and breathe deeply in the freshness, exhaling only to take another long breath. Something long buried within stirs as it recalls the colors, the vividness of life, when gray was a choice, not a requisite, when the act of creating was enough to color the world in bold tones as life announced itself, shimmering in all it's brilliance.
