"Vincent Van Gogh used to eat yellow paint because he
thought it would get
the happiness inside him. Many people thought he was mad and
stupid for doing so because the paint was toxic, never mind that
it was obvious
that eating paint couldn’t possibly have any direct
correlation to one’s happiness,
but I never saw that. If you were so unhappy that even the
maddest ideas could possibly work, l
ike painting the walls of your internal organs yellow, then you
are going to do it. It’s really no different than falling
in love or taking drugs.
There is a greater risk of getting your heart broken or
overdosing,
but people still do it everyday because there was always that
chance it could make things better. Everyone has
their yellow paint."
