What is red?

 What is red?

The big question, to which there is no singular answer. The true solution is to concur with the belief that everyone may see something different. Each of us will see red as what they think is red. ‘Red’ is just a selection, the same theory applies to every colour. Every thing.  An artist’s palette may contain a ‘red’, but there is no proof that we will all see the same thing. We have forever been told that this ‘red’ is a warning colour. We also use this colour to alarm us of heat. Our blood is of the same colour make-up. So, whenever we see this colour make-up, we sense similar elements of alarm.

The above paragraph should be applied to every colour in the rainbow. This concept is another basic principle for me to argue that EVERYONE VIEWS THINGS DIFFERENTLY. There is no way that there is ever a finite, singular definition of anything. Everything is viewed from a unique aspect. 

How special is that? Reread it.

Everything is viewed from a unique aspect.

You have so much. 

A wealth of experiences. A life-full of experiencing.

Even when I was in hospital post-coma, I was aware that I was so lucky, that I could still think. I had an incredible amount to think about, I had an incredible amount of time.

Those who have left us in the past have had lives of unique experiences. There will have been millions and millions of similar experiences, from which we can learn a lot about humanity, but none identical.  

The truth is that anything is possible. Those who do not believe this, are living with closed minds, and will suffer the most in their life. Suffer, when they suddenly are in the position that they feared, experiencing what they thought impossible. In turn, those of us who open-up as much as we can, accepting many, many possibilities, can have a life full of valuable experiences.

It is so important to live with an open mind. 

Do not doubt yourself. 

Why doubt yourself? If you know you can’t do something, then YOU KNOW.

‘Doubt’ implies that you do not know for certain, therefore there IS A POSSIBILITY.

(Please note the positive outcomes of both situations above, results IN CAPITALS)

Find these positives, and use them to get the best possible outcome for you. 

For EVERYONE, is the best for YOU.

Always remember this. A utilitarian approach will always prove successful. 

One of my first photos that I took, was rediscovered the other week. I have reproduced it, and framed it using Photoshop, today!

Julie Byrne releases her new album this coming Friday. Her acoustic guitar picking combines with a delicate, soft voice, offering a mesmerising, beautiful sound for me!
