Blank Canvas


Life is like a blank canvas.

Every day, you pick your colors,

and you depict the outcome.

Life can be beautiful and amazing

or absolutely terrifying.

The choice is yours.

Like an artist painting a picture,

no matter what the colors are,

they create a masterpiece.

Whether it's joyful or depressing

is up to them, just like life.

Your words and moods are your paint,

both of which you choose.

With everything you do,

you're painting.

You're creating.

You are making your masterpiece.

Whether it's joyful or depressing

is up to you.
