She searched for alternatives for the painting of her life. Her paper was beautiful with shades of blue. They ranged from the brightness of the sky to the stylings of The Thrill is Gone. She wondered if she liked brightness the best or if she had to choose.
When she dipped her brush in the water, ready to thin her blue, she paused. Reflecting about where her journey had taken her, she shook out her brush and poured a cup of coffee and smiled.

this is my six sentence story in response to the prompt “alternative.” Thanks to Denise of Girlie on the Edge for her weekly prompts.
I really liked the 3rd and 4th sentences with the color blue ranging from the sky, something just ‘there’, to the emotion of music with that song in particular, and the realization that some decisions don’t have to be made. Nice 6!

Perhaps she realizes she needs the colors of the rainbow and all shades in between 😊

Maybe in her blue she has more than she imagined, i’d like to think she does.
