We are like chameleons. We naturally reflect the changing colors around us, to the point that they manifest in our skin. Sometimes they persuade us to pleasing tints. Other times they prompt us to clash with our own sensibilities. We flash flirtatious come-ons and blare ominous warning signals. Our hues elicit reactions from others, initiating waves of shifting shades that cascade throughout humanity.
And, like a chameleon, we also have the capacity to stain our skin, as we choose - if we choose. Unfortunately, many have forgotten, or never even learned, that this is an option. It takes practice and real-time attentiveness to man the reigns and control our tones. We can un-muddy the mix and transform our chaos into harmony, making moving works of art out of ourselves. And, as our skill improves, we can come together as an intentionally orchestrated symphony of shimmering colorations.
In my fantasies, our collective collage is color coordinated with the earthen tones of the natural world.
All great changes begin with a dream. Care to join me in mine?
