Crayons = Love

Friday, November 5, 2010

I love crayons. I really do. There's something...comforting about them. I

drew this tonight when we went out for food after doing the Teen Feed. Of

course, Eddy and I grab the crayons. Two teenage girls sitting and coloring

away busily...I love it.

Quote Of The Day:

"Life is a box of crayons. Most people are the 8-color

boxes, but what you're really looking for are the

64-color boxes with the sharpeners on the back. I

fancy myself to be a 64-color box, though I've got a

few missing. It's ok though, because I've got some more

vibrant colors like periwinkle at my disposal. I have a bit

of a problem though in that I can only meet the 8-color

boxes. Does anyone else have that problem? I mean

there are so many different colors of life, of feeling, of

articulation...so when I meet someone who's an 8-color

type...I'm like, 'Hey girl! Magenta!' and she's like, 'Oh,

you mean purple!' and she goes off on her purple thing,

and I'm like 'No - I want magenta!'" ~ John Mayer

50 Word Story:

Crayola Masterpieces

Sitting pretty and sharp in their cardboard box, "Crayola" printed on the

outside. Every color, all 64, are new, vibrant, and sharp, just waiting to

create something. Grabbing hands and furious scribbles. At the end of the day,

life is like a box of crayons. Out of it come masterpieces.
