What Color Would You Choose?

If you were given crayons to color your life what colors would you use? For some of us, being conservative, we may feel uncomfortable using more than a few colors. But there are others, who would use all the colors in the box. Blending colors freely and inventing colors that only nature could duplicate. How easy it is for these people to envision the beauty of their work even with their eyes closed. Then why is it that we, who are so fearful of coloring outside the lines, have such difficulty. In life, we are all given a box of crayons to color our experiences. We can either choose to explode the moment with blinding colors or we can use muted colors that conceal the beauty that is within us with a soft veil. What colors will you choose to use in your life?
Can we ever duplicate nature's beauty...

(I feel as if I've always been conservative. Maybe every once in awhile, the royal blues and magenta have made their way in my life. But they were only used as accenting colors. I sometimes envy those who wear rainbow colors comfortably. Although, brilliant color may not be my thing, I appreciate their presence in nature.)
