Maybe the world is fine...

So I've been thinking about this a lot, and I don't think blue and green are actually gone. I mean, we can't see them anymore, but I'm wondering if it's more like colorblindness than them actually changing the whole world. Because, think about it. If blue were actually gone, they sky wouldn't be gray. The sky would be red. That's how light and our atmosphere work. We see it as blue because of refracted red light. I remember reading about it forever ago in a science textbook. And if green were gone, we'd already be seeing the smaller plants starting to die, and they aren't, right? So they clearly still are...photosynthesizing. So. I'm not sure the world changed. I think this time it was us. And I can't decide if that's better or worse.

Then I suppose it would be awful.
But the point of what you asked would be that you could turn it off and on again!
Maybe some things can just just not have an awful downside.

Yeah, I suppose so. Only awful sides to something would be bad.

[notyourutopian]

Right.
But everyone feels so negative about everything lately.
Hell even I do I guess.

It would be nice if things could be more upside sometime.
Hahah

[wordcarvings]

Yes...

They will be eventually, probably.

[notyourutopian]

Hopefully.
Positive thoughts and all that.

[wordcarvings]

Yes, those are pretty useful to have.

And hard to come by when I find myseld dwelling on retrospec.
Solution would be not to do that, right?

It's just.
I miss my blue eyes!
So every time I glance in the mirror, dwelling again.

Hah.

[wordcarvings]

And that's easier said than done, in the end.

I can understand that.
