Our Last Colorful Days

The book that has inspired me the most is the Rebel Fiction book entitled “Our Last

Colorful Days” by Tyra because going through teenage life is one of the hardest, challenging,

and exhausting phases of human development. At this point, we experience how life works. We

begin to find motivation as a daily reason to move forward on endless days.

This book pertains to a boy who lost his parents at a very young age and lost enthusiasm

for the other things he loved to do and a girl who has leukemia and is trying to live the most of

her remaining days. They both found the brightest colors in their dark world and starts to cherish

every moment they have together.

The character in the story that I truly relate to is the boy because I know that it is tiring to

feel apathy about the things that no longer exhilarate us. Having no inspiration to wake up as the

day goes by is one of the things I’ve gone through. But sometimes, enduring dull moments in life

pushes us to exceed what we had already accomplished. It enables us to grow even if it takes an

enormous amount of courage and perseverance.

I have learned from this book is that we have plenty of things to discover and understand.

Just like a flower blooms, many delightful things happen in life. Even if we only have a couple

of days or months to live, finding hope and happiness with the people we love and pursuing our

dreams and passion is as colorful as we see the rainbows above.
