Imagine, getting up one day and discovering that the world is just black and white. No reds, yellows, blues and greens. All your shirts look the same, all the flowers look the same, No paintings, no movies, no variety, no vibrancy…just monotones of black and white. No looking at the sky as it turns from orange hues of the morning, to a clear blue, to a clouded gray, to a dark blue at dusk and finally black. No flowers, no butterflies, no rainbows, only black and white monotones. Sounds scary, right? When we start to imagine what lack of colors could be like do we truly realize how much colors mean to us.
Color is not just an embellishment, not just a decoration. Color motivates, excites, attracts, enlightens, emphasizes, empathizes. Colors are the language the universe speaks to our soul.
Red is the color of fire, blood, war, danger, passion, desire , love. It is an emotionally intense color and yet a color of warning. A color that screams danger and desire at the same time.
