I Don’t Wear Sunglasses

The sunglasses pictured above were popular when I was in high school. I think Risky Business was why. I didn’t wear them.

I don’t wear them now. Some would say that living in Michigan and not being a celebrity negates any need to wear them. I still see a lot of non-celebrity Michiganders wearing them anyhow.

I heard an interview with Jay Leno recently and it was brought up that he doesn’t wear them either. It was interesting to me that his reason was exactly the same as mine. I don’t want anything changing reality. It bothers me that sunglasses change everything from the way it truly is. I want my sky blue, my grass green, my sun yellow and everything else the color it is supposed to be. I don’t want everything brown. Sometimes the sun hurts my eyes, but I would rather squint and see things as they truly are than put on sunglasses and be mislead.

Many don’t like reality so they put on a pair of glasses that paints their world the color they want it. Others are busy trying to put glasses on people to get them to see things the way they want them to be perceived. 

One thought on “I Don’t Wear Sunglasses

  1. Well, well. Truly sunglasses cause me not to squint! Now pink sunglasses would seriously change the look of what is out there! But pink sunglasses would make me look ridiculous; hence, I will not wear them. Brown/black, on the other hand, do reduce the squint factor! 🙂 How deep can statements get!!
