Changes

A few days ago, while standing in the bathroom admiring the new booties with their vibrant turquoise stripped with purple flecked white, thinking how delightfully they went with the purple pj's, and how wonderful it was to have another pair with purple in them as it was such a fabulous colour, the mind clicked in and went WTF! When did all this purple appear and how much of it is there? Doing a quick mental stocktake there are pj's in assorted shades, a skirt, jumpers and a coat... oh and a few pairs of shoes one is unable to wear due to that damn tumour in the foot (still waiting on the hospital). Not that much considering it's the favourite colour...

Since when interjected the memory. Purple is His favourite colour... yours is red. Standing there transfixed at the thought the mind replied no, definitely purple. No, your favourite colour is red insisted the memory... red shoes, bags, coats and jumpers. Red!

Not any more it would seem... the purple is taking over with the slow relentlessness of a rising tide... it is eradicating the red.

Just the other day a certain person on the friends list... waves... published a list of her favourite things and all one could do was read it and think... for now. These are your favourite things for now. As you fall further down the rabbit hole you may find they change...
