I am… White Canvas

“Don’t be afraid to start over. This time you’re not starting from scratch, your starting from experience.”

Quote by: The Minds Journal

* * *

There was a time when some tried to convince me that I was colorless, bland, and too weak to overcome life’s darkest struggles. But I learned that every hardship was a blessing in disguise, sculpting the wisdom and purpose of who I am. Hardship taught me the truth: white is not an absence, but a presence.

Like a lighthouse perched high on a hill under a glorious full moon and a sea of heavenly stars, I shine a bright light to guide others safely through the darkness. 

When the rain ends, I reveal my secret: I am the foundation of the rainbow. The moment my white light meets the atmosphere, it fractures into a stunning spectrum. I am not empty; I am the magical, healing unity of every color combined.

I am the color white, I am the architect of beautiful memories.

I am the memory of enjoying white chocolate macadamia nut cookies with a white mocha hot chocolate, sitting on the porch on the coldest day of autumn to admire nature’s beauty. 

I am the memory of snowball fights after building a snowman. 

I am the gift of the most beautiful, fragrant bouquet of white flowers, gifted for no reason other than love.

I am the empty page eager for words that heal, and the clean canvas whispering that it is never too late to start over.

I am white. Colorless to the untrained eye, yet bursting with the full spectrum of light. Within me I hold the entire world. I am pure, unconditional love.
