Mary got out of bed and when she turned into the kitchen all her beautiful plates and cups were grey. She couldn’t believe what happened to all the beautiful reds, greens, and blues.
She called for her son to come. When he went into the kitchen and asked her what she wanted Mary showed him the dishes.
“Mom, did you also see the walls are grey and the floors?”
Disturbed by his comments, Mary looked around and saw he was right. The two went out the back door and saw the grass wasn’t green and all her beautiful flowers were also grey.
“Oh my,” Mary said. “It seems that the entire world, at least ours, has lost all its colour.”
Mary’s son went into the house and came back with his laptop. He turned it on and immediately saw an articlethat said, “Sad day. The entire world has lost all colour. Everywhere only the colour grey is present.”
Mary wondered what that could mean. Is the world about to end or has something taken over the atmosphere that caused this change.
“Mom the article says they think this is happening because there is too much sadness in the world.”
Mary thought about that but how could that be true. She didn’t understand how sadness would remove the colour in the entire world. She hoped it had to be something chemical that was causing this change.
