The rational truth about being one with colors

A story by Marie-Ange Bourdages

By Ange De Mon CoeurPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

I think the word " unique " is overrated. Being and becoming in a fast-moving world leaves you indistinguishable like a needle in a haystack. "Dare to be different", they say. But how can you be different, when a billion of needles are also trying to find their way out of the hay? We are, in fact and truly, one of a kind, but can you really see it?

I found my uniqueness by understading that everyone is unique. People are like a rainbow, each different, each their own color, each their own matter. There's about 10 million of colors in the world, all more unique from one another. I feel that there's not need to try to be "different'' from everyone. It's so much pressure, right? Colors each have their own codes, dynamics and looks, just like us, don't you think?

I think the word " unique " is overrated. Celebrate the fact that you are your own, and your own's only. There's no need to be unique from everybody else, but you can be in your own way. "Mustard yellow" and "Dijon yellow" are quite similar, but yet totally not the same. So fuck it, be who you truly are, because you are truly and totally unique.
