When I was a kid, maybe 6 or 7, I had a pet lizard named Mowgli. He was a forest chameleon, which means he could change his color to match his environment. He could easily camouflage himself and “fit in...” and I thought that was the coolest thing ever!!! You mean, you can just change the way you look so you look like everything else around you? ... I was mind blown. LOL. ——————— Things are different now. Chameleons are a very different thing to an adult, and blending in is not the magic trick it was then. Feeling the need to fit in seems to be a struggle for some but for me, as I became an adult, I realized how important it is to me to stand out. The LAST thing I want to do is fit it. I want to be different. But more importantly, I just want to be myself. And if that’s a little different than the world around me... then I’m good with that! ⚡️ I’LL BE ME. YOU BE YOURSELF. 🦎💖🖤 • are YOU the type of person that likes to blend in? Or stand out?.... ———————— No. 24/31 of the #openmindopenart series. 🖤 Art by Jason Naylor
