A while back (and even today in some instances) I have went by the pen name of "Grey." The meaning of this pen name of mine wasn't just to sound cool. It was because at the time, I felt nothing represented my life more than the color of Grey.
Grey is the path in between the light and dark.
Not good or evil,
Not kind or rude,
Not great or bad,
The middle ground I found myself in. (Btw, if you notice, I sorta viewed grey then as the yin yang, thus why i find it so easy to accept the yin yang's ideals.)
(Also as a side note, before I went by grey, someone called me an angel, I scoffed and went on one of my first rants on "How can I be an angel if i'm not good enough to be good, but not bad enough to be bad," thus me going by the grey angel)
Now I was thinking for a moment today on a dream scene someone described involving me. (sorry, I won't explain the dream.) They mentioned vivid colors...
Colors... That triggered a weird memory...
You see, when I was a kid, I was one of the biggest cry babies you'll ever meet. I grew out of most of it thankfully, but that's not the point...
Whenever I was really sad, broken down and crying, I'd cry until I was drained. My friends Cythnia Maria or Justin would come over (yes friends, which means it was after elm school, middle school to be exact, yes that's still kids to me because you're not yet in your teens) and Try to comfort me. Unfortunately, I'd still cry till I was drained before just... Calming down...
If I was still sad a weird thing always happened...
All the color left my world for about 5 to 10 minutes... and everything would turn into various shades of grey. Everything from red shirts, blue pants, green shirts, blond red blue black hair, all of it turned into shades of grey...
Then I'd just sit there, watching. I doubt my friends believed me when I said i couldn't see colors then. I could hardly believe myself...
