Straight Rainbow Love

I love rainbows!

I love the brightness, the uplifting of your mood as you look at them, the cheerfulness of the mix of colours.

But I don't get the panic surrounding the love!

Do you know, dear readers, how many people have questioned my sexuality(ugh dur, I'm married!...to a MAN!!) or discreetly pointed out that rainbows are the symbol of the gay?!! LMAO whys it suddenly seem weird to like colour?

Ugh, so many people dress and decorate dully these days, it's depressing.

To me, that's depressing.

I couldn't imagine being happy in my world if I surrounded myself in black, grey, brown, beige, etc. Eeeewww! What a mood killer.

Dressing in colours is an instant mood lifter, and the more the merrier ;)

Decorating my house in colour is cheerful, keeps the happiness about the place.

It seems absurd to me that liking colour has meant a sudden worry on some peoples behalves that I have changed my path in life, that my once straight direction, is no longer... People who get around in dark colours aren't all goths, are they? They may look bloody boring, and I'm sure those shades surrounding them doesn't do much for the spirit, but their beliefs aren't questioned, are they?! Last year we had one of Jack's library buddies over for a play and it was the families first time at our home. The child's mother exclaimed, as she looked around our lounge room with a shocked look, "Boy, Jack sure has a colourful life!" But the way she said it, was like it was a bad thing. Like the lounge room looked like someone did a Technicolour vomit!!

Oh my golly, heaven forbid there's no black in sight!

I really detest black, or the greys, browns and beige's.

All the picture frames on our walls have been painted by me, all those terribly boring frames have been given a lick of colour. Light teal for all our sons pictures, musky pink for our couple pics, yellow will be for our next bub. The beige curtains of our rental have been stashed away in the cupboard and in their place are shimmery purple. We have my Grandma's shabby chic style lounge sweet, that was rather beigey in her house, but with the curtains and the purple and green rugs on the floor, the floral pattern on it is now the main focus and it looks like it has a new life. The TV cabinet has a rainbow cloth draped over it to keep bub from getting to the DVDs, and the little book shelf is painted with the teal, musk and yellow colours.

Yep, a rather colourful lounge room!

I no longer wear black pants. Only ever did so for work uniform and now am glad to be rid of it, blah. I just love colour!! But am I gay? Lol, only in the happy way ;)
