The Middle road

I come from amazing Indiginous heritage that honors the diversity in the world from all creatures beings, from all forms of life and when you understand what it means to be Indiginous, everything is alive or has life! Though I was raised in a way that views the world as black and white, this way of thinking was so limited to me and left a gaping hole inside. With a black and white view of the worl...

The Switch

All my life I’ve seen nothing but black and white; a world with nothing but vague emptiness.

Everyday was empty until today. Glimpses of colours filled my eyes and I couldn’t help to think I was crazy. Those first colours felt like life had been restored back into me; a world that seemed filled with possibilities. I began to just look around me and view this new life. For the first time in my life...

Discovery Of Self

I always saw the world from a different glass, my window was black and white and lifeless too but today I saw a hint of something that could turn into my discovery of my dear self , it was something that I thought was so shiny that my eyes shuttled away from the sight of it , I can’t name it yet because I have no knowledge or experience in human colors but I think people call it golden yellow and ...

Colour

The day I awake from the TV, my feeling of isolation and boredom travels around me leaving me mentally unstable. My loneliness became more frequent and I couldn't heal from what had been invented. Yet. The fadish colour synced to my eyes like a hallucination not knowing if it was real. Again. More colour starts to appear in sight and the light around my head is brighter than a flashlight back in m...

Hello

First Sunrise

Alaiya followed her mother and brother through the frozen lands of Alaska. Ever since the young polar bear could remember the world had been a huge expanse of white, with a dark sky stretching overhead. Her mother called it “the long night”, though Alaiya wasn’t sure why she bothered naming it. Wasn’t the world always like this?


Alaiya glanced at her mother walking confidently up ahead. She had ...

The Indescribable Blue

Elena goes about her colourless day by getting out of bed and getting dressed. She looks around for her glasses, but they are no where to be seen. She checks by her table, under her couch, even by the cat’s bed, but they are nowhere. She turns around to check her bed, as she had been reading as she fell asleep. But still, nowhere. Suddenly she checks to see where her book is, and strangely she cou...

A Journey Of Grace

I am a witness to mercy, a story of grace,

A soul on a journey, far from my place.

Through valleys and mountains, both joy and despair,

Each new dawn reminds me, God’s love is still there.


I’ve tasted success, but I hunger for more,

Dreaming of futures where I can soar.

Yet life moves slowly, one day at a time,

Trusting the process, each mountain to climb.


God is my refuge, faithful and true,

In...

Cardinal

The 20 year old man looked up at the sky and saw birds flying around. Nothing was out of place until he a cardinal that was red. He did not know it was red, though. He was amazed and shocked by this discovery. He decided to devote his life to finding another splash of color. Little did he know, that was a glitch that would by fixed in no time, and that he had devoted his life to a hopeless cause....

Color

For as long as I could remember, everything was black and white. Surrounded by people who could see color, I always felt out of place. With the way I saw the world, it felt as though people viewed me the same way—black and white. No part of me stood out and nothing in the world caught my eye. I used to be obsessed with wanting to see color, but eventually I gave up. Now, I no longer cared.
