Leon's Color Crisis

Life can be confusing for all young chameleons. But especially for Leon the Chameleon.

Since he was little, Leon’s eyes have been stuck looking sideways, so he can’t see himself and never knows what color he is. Others are constantly telling him what he should be…blue, green, orange…but they contradict each other and change their minds. How can Leon find out his true color?

Leon’s Color Crisis is a story about discovering our authentic self amid the noise of the world.

I warmly recommend the charming tale about the adventures of Eddy the Whirlpool.

The story unveils two timeless truths: that reality is a single, infinite and indivisible whole; and that happiness can be found in the understanding that we essentially are that reality. This is the simple joy of being.

Hi, I’m Gijs!

I spent many years working in science and running my own tech startup. Building a successful business was my whole focus, but one question never really left me: what is life really about?

After a long search, I realized something surprising. The answers to life’s biggest questions are not complicated. They are things we often knew as children, but somehow forgot along the way. And the best way to remember them is with a little story.

I hope you enjoy reading these Big Little Stories as much as I enjoy creating them!
