I think it's about time for me to do a Rainbow Brite themed challenge, don't you? So this is the story behind Rainbow Brite: In a faraway place, right at the end of the rainbow, there is a magical kingdom where all the colors of the earth are created. The kingdom is called Rainbow Land, and living in this wonderful place is a lovable, creative little girl named Rainbow Brite. She uses the colors of the rainbow to make our world brighter and our hearts lighter. . Rainbow's partners are the Color Kids - seven little people with personalities as varied as the colors of the rainbow. They are responsible for their assigned colors. The villians of Rainbow Land are Murky Dismal and Lurky. They hate everything colorful and are always plotting ways to use color for trickery and evil doings so that the world will be just as murky and dismal as they are. Rainbow Brite and her forces of color challenge the forces of gloom, in a struggle to keep the world bright and colorful, and to keep our hearts hopeful and happy. I am going to do at least one challenge with each Color Kid, focusing on improving myself in the areas that are symbolized by those colors and part of the strengths of each of those Color Kids (also incorporating bits of color theory and chakra balancing too). Then I am going to combine all of that into one for a challenge focused on Rainbow Brite herself. Hopefully, by the end of this, I will have a clearer idea of my true strengths in many areas, rather than it being a little Murky Dismal. First up is Red Butler: Red is a smooth-talking, full-of-charm, fun-loving boy. He is always in search of new adventures and is ever ready to rescue anyone is distress. Though Red often bores The Kids with long and involved stories of his adventures and pursuits, his genuine love of being alive brings an uplifting spirit to all. Because his is the color of strength and passion, he is in charge of the color red. So Red is charismatic, outgoing, adventurous, passionate, energetic, goal driven, and persistent. He also gets frustrated and angers easily. I already have persistence and am passionate and helpful, but I am not very adventurous or outgoing and I definitely get frustrated and anger easily. Goal 1: "It's okay to connect." Put in a real effort to get to know and connect with people I come in contact with on a regular basis and be less standoff-ish to people I don't know well. Goal 2: Start working harder on my Yoga Teacher Training goal. Do 2 lessons per week of Khan Academy's Anatomy and Physiology course. Start working on my manifestation and gratitude journals to help me solidify what I really want and need to do to make this successful. Goal 3: Continue working on being less reactive and calmer by meditating daily and using my emotional number scale and taking time out when I need it, as well as continuing with therapy. Goal 4: Try 1 new social activity in the course of this challenge.
