Walking the Strip in Las Vegas and I ran into this lady. She reminded me that sometimes we can be too focused on color.

Lady Liberty started out the color of a penny, but began to turn green. Many people were worried about her new color and plans were made to paint her back to the “correct” color.

But the Army Corps of Engineers did a study and found that the oxidation actually protected the skin and softened the harsh look of the edges. So the color that people were afraid of actually made things stronger and more beautiful.

Think about that today, and don’t be afraid of a new color! Unless it’s brown or black or yellow.
