"Life is Better in Color" proves that life would become monotone and boring without the brushful expression of color. People, places and animals would all look the same, everything would become dull and drab, unremarkable. Possessing the vision for color allows us to celebrate our differences and share in the beauty this world has to offer. Even though we may look different on the outside, we all are basically the same on the inside. Let's all love one another without judgement.
Carlos lives in a world without color. At first, he doesn't think anything of it because it's what he has always known. Life carries on as is, until one day he and his friends get lost on their way home. In their moment astray, he wishes things would be different. One day, a beautiful rainbow fills the sky and paints the land. He and his friends begin to notice the intense colors and the true form of animals and nature alike. They start to notice the variances in their skin tone and hair color and become excited by the fact that everyone is so unique. Although they love how their classmates look different on the outside, they are happy that they are still the same on the inside.
Dawn Lumbatis Scherb grew up in Jupiter, Florida where she still lives today. She is a wife, mother, grandmother, artist and mom to many pets. She believes that in order to make the world a better place, we need to start with the person in the mirror.
