TO BE A RAINBOW
Because
it’s rainbow season, I’m permitted to look like a rainbow.
And it would seem as though colour blocking
was out the window, but fear not, for I have damned the trends that be and
present to you the perfect way to look like a rainbow, except I forgot to wear
my mirrored sunglasses and have you see me see the world through rainbow coloured glasses... it actually killed me for a while.
In the most likely situations in life, it
has been researched and found to be true in many surveys that colours do
actually influence your moods. Like the artist, Pablo Picasso once said
“Colours, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.” and what does he know? it's not like he was some world renowned painter who lived and breathed with colours of so many varieties.
And although there are a handful of amazing reviews and opinions people have about colours, some of them happen to be actually quite outrageous and sometimes outrightly vague. For although black has been associated with fierceness and aggressiveness, I have met a few people who wear black on a steady and are neither of these adjectives. To be fair I like to think it depends not only on the colour but on the personality of the individual who wears it. A lot of minimalists wear majorly black and white and yet a lot of them are the sweetest people you’ll ever know.
So yes, I do believe the colours we wear
sometimes reflect our personalities but I believe more in the fact that the
colours we see affect our moods even more and just like how unless you’re a
mirror obsessed person, we do not see ourselves as much as others see us. The
colours we wear influence other people more than they influence us, at least I’m
logically inclined to believe so.
Hence if you’re like me and you really want
to have a positive impact on the world around you no matter how small and even
if it’s for a day, then don’t be scared to get your rainbow game on. Be the
brightest rainbow you can be, elicit the biggest smiles you can, for with so
much gloom surrounding us in different measure, “be a rainbow in somebody
else’s cloud.”
I’m too busy
realising how imperfect humans really are and how thoroughly inconsiderate it
is to judge people simply based on the things you do not like about them.
There’s a story behind every person, a story they couldn’t change even if they
tried to, a story that shaped them whether they wanted to be shaped or not.
