Color Today Bright

Today is your day to paint life in bold colors;
set today's rhythm with your heart-drum;
walk today's march with courage;
create today as your celebration of life.

This world is but a canvas to our imagination.

Try adding some bright colors to the picture by including humor,
and your picture begins to lighten up.

If a man does not keep pace with his companions,
perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.

Each of us is an artist, but many are repressed artists.
There is something of ourselves that cannot be expressed in words.
Perhaps that something can be expressed in form or color, dance or music.
If only with crayons or a tin drum,
let that something that cannot be said move your hands or your body today.
