I decided to
see the world through rose-colored
glasses. But I didn't read the warning label: "Caution. All red objects will seem to disappear. Prolonged use may cause headaches, eye fatigue, disorientation, and/or apathy."
In Alaska, I was the only one who couldn't see the
Northern Lights.
In Australia,
Ayers Rock (
Uluru) was invisible.
In Bermuda,
I got sunburned and didn't know it.
In Switzerland, the
Matterhorn was fuzzy and
bright pink. I felt a headache coming on, but I didn't really care. I finally took off the glasses and gave them to a milkmaid.
My final stop was the
Grand Canyon. At sunset, the sky turned purple, the sun was
orange, and the
clouds were pink.
"My God!" I gasped. I had worn the rose-colored glasses too long. My eyes had stuck that way.
