What Color Are My Eyes?

It's a question I've pondered more times than I care to admit. You'd think after years of looking in the mirror, I'd have a definitive answer. But the truth is, my eye color seems to be a bit of a chameleon.

The Morning Dilemma

Every morning, I find myself peering into the bathroom mirror, squinting against the harsh fluorescent light. Are they green today? Or more of a hazel? It's like my eyes decided to play a never-ending game of color roulette.

The Great Debate

My friends and family don't help much either. My mom swears they're "a beautiful shade of green, just like your grandfather's." My best friend insists they're "definitely hazel, no question about it." And my partner? They just smile and say, "They're the color of your soul." (Real helpful, honey.)

The Clothing Factor

Here's where it gets even more confusing. Put me in a blue shirt, and suddenly my eyes look decidedly blue-green. Throw on a brown sweater, and they transform into a warm amber. It's like they're trying to coordinate with my outfit choices.

The Scientific Explanation (Sort Of)

Apparently, this eye color identity crisis isn't uncommon. I've read that factors like lighting, surrounding colors, and even mood can affect how we perceive eye color. So maybe my eyes aren't indecisive – they're just expressive!

The Final Verdict?

After much deliberation (and countless selfies in various lighting conditions), I've come to a conclusion: my eyes are... drumroll please... uniquely mine. They're a beautiful blend of colors that shift and change, keeping me guessing and sparking conversations.

So the next time someone asks me, "What color are your eyes?" I'll simply smile and say, "Why don't you take a look and tell me what you see?" After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder – especially when it comes to eye color!
