Five Minute Friday - RED


Funny how some people either love the color red or hate it; it's just one of those things that you can't be on the fence about.
I used to be a red hater myself - couldn't stand her!                    
 Too different, too out there, too much!                                                       

But, over the last couple of years, I've come to appreciate and respect red.

She has come a long way in obtaining status, power and RESPECT.
She has fought unspeakable battles.
She has redefined quality of life.
She has a powerful story to tell if you would just take the time to listen with an empathetic, non-judgmental ear.

Yeah, RED is bold and brilliant - don't hate her because she is beautiful.
               RED is a survivor and she is here to stay baby!

                 C'mon and show RED some love.

I love the color red for all the reasons you posted, but your right...it takes s bit of bravery and boldness to embrace her. I love how this post feels like I'm having a conversation with you. I'm glad I stopped by from FMF.
