Week 31: ME & Color
As most of you know by now, I started this project because I wanted to help women find their true beauty. I am often awe struck by how beautiful the people around me are... inside and out. I wonder if they realize or see it in themselves at all. I want to tell them, but worry that about how it will come across.
I am a seeker of beauty in my surroundings. I am always looking for beautiful places, always yearning to travel to exotic places with gorgeous landscapes. I sometimes struggle in trying to find beautiful places in my area. I have trouble seeing it at times.
This wall of graffiti is on the side of a convenience store in an area near me that I often drive through, but feel uneasy stopping in. Every time I drive by it, I think how amazing it is that someone made an ugly building in a basically unattractive area look so cool, with the vibrant colors and amazing message. I am struck by the irony that someone vandalizing this building has made it so beautiful (at least to me). It reminds me that beauty can be found anywhere, if we just take the time to look.
