Purple

Today, I noticed something I had never noticed before. I own a lot of things that are the color purple. I'm beginning to think that my favorite color might be changing from green to purple! *gasp* No, actually my favorite color changes a lot. Oddly enough, I first made this observation while I was in the shower tonight. My shampoo and conditioner are purple and they come in purple bottles. Also, my razor is purple. My fingernails and toenails are even purple! When I got out of the shower, I put on my new terrycloth Juicy Couture violet pants. By the way, these are the most comfortable pants EVER. Well worth the investment, if you ask me. Although, my mom does get a discount at Belk, where she works, and I got them at a discounted price. Go Mom! I also noticed that the bag I carry my books in is purple. I know you are wondering "why are you just noticing this?" Well, I find myself not very observant when I need to be and then one day, I all of a sudden start noticing things out of the blue. I do this a lot. I'm not sure if this is a good or a bad thing. Anyway, the point I'm trying to make here is that this can be applied to everyday life. If we don't open our eyes and just stop and look around, we might not notice things that are even the most obvious to us. We should all take a moment each day to reflect on our lives and observe the things that are going on around us. This is something I'm going to start working on. I believe that life is too short to keep on living each day by routine. Mix it up and you might discover something about yourself that you never noticed before. I encourage you all to join me. I'll keep you posted if I discover something that is particularly interesting. It's funny how a little thing, such as a color, can be so big. :)
