Letting my skeptic ride shotgun today.



Backstory

For protection against the world, I sometimes wear rose-tinted glasses. They do protect from the harsh realities, but they also colour the real world, unrealistically. Today is a turning point for me, so I need to balance those glasses with a little skepticism. I need to see life the way it really is, without the roses.

I wear rose-colored glasses, too. Even if I try, they usually are glued to my face. Cheers to our glasses, for they bring light to others (even if it's when people laugh at our sweet disposition).
