I loved the Muppets as a kid and never knew why I appreciated them so much. I realize now they followed a certain simple and true philosophy, and Jim Henson projected that image into the show: one of honoring yourself, loving yourself, and living a simple life, with lots of friends and laughter...this song by Kermit the Frog will show you the simple joy of knowing and loving who you are...enjoy!!


It's not easy bein' green
It seems you blend in with so many other
ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over,
'cause you're not standing out like flashy sparkles
on the water,
or stars in the sky

But green is the color of spring
And green can be cool and friendly like
And green can be big like an ocean
Or important like a mountain
Or tall like a tree

When green is all there is to be,
It could make you wonder why,
But why wonder, why wonder?
I am green, and it'll do fine
And I think it's what I want to be.

--Kermit the Frog, The Muppet Show
