Hey there mates,
How’s life?
Let’s find out!
Life is grey!
Not a vibrant violet or a luscious red. Not a hopeful yellow or a shiny gold. It’s shades of grey. A million shades of grey.
How is grey formed? What does grey represent?
Grey is the mixture of the two omnipresent colours, black and white.
Black represents pessimist thoughts. Its the darker part of us. The part that is a mystery, that is secretive. A part that is bottled up in the within. Deep down, well-guarded, enough to not pour it in front of anyone and everyone. The part of us that is insecure, scared, petrified and fears from every ounce of its being. It is a part that seeks nothing but lots of reassurances, coaxing, consolations, but ironically, it refuses to open up.
Black makes us love sunsets more than sunrises. Ends more than beginnings .Terminals more than starts. Critics more than appreciations.
It wants ends, no matter how non-fairytale like.
Psychologically, Black is the perennial colour of fashion and sophistication in the modern world. It is strong, without illusions. It flirts with cynicism. It is the least naive, the least childish of colours. We need black when we want to keep our cool; we’ve seen too much already to get carried away now. It is a reminder of the appeal of being a little bit harsh, a little bit demanding and decisive. Black is lean.
This shade is everyone’s favourite no matter how dark.
When you add black to another shade, it either darkens it or turns to completely into black. That’s exactly how it happens in life.
White on the other hand is calm, serene, peaceful and compromising. Add a colour to white and you would see the beautiful gradation. Painters add a colour to white, for white can be tamed, white can compromise, it can bend itself the way we want it to. However, he would never add a colour to black for it could never be a changed. Never.
The colour white is colour at its most complete and pure, the colour of perfection. The symbolic meaning of white is purity, innocence, wholeness and completion.
In colour psychology white is the colour of new beginnings, of wiping the slate clean, so to speak. It is the blank canvas waiting to be stroked upon. While white isn’t stimulating to the senses, it opens the way for the creation of anything the mind can conceive.
White contains an equal balance of all the colours of the spectrum, representing both the positive and negative aspects of all colours. White might represent all the aspects, but never has it let it affect itself. White hasn’t lost its purity over years.
But we know its neither black nor white. Neither all good nor all bad.
Grey is the colour. Greyish blue. Greyish white. Greyish black. Greyish green. But always grey.
There are more than a fifty shades of grey. Its the king of shades. The darker the soul. The darker the grey. Brighter the soul. Brighter the grey.
As a kid, we could only think of two things, goodness or badness. Nothing more, nothing less.
But over the years, over the experiences we know that its not all. We are all a little good and a little bad. The difference comes upon when we choose to lighten or darker the soul even more.
What’s the positive and the negative vibe? Its nothing but the amount of black and the amount of white in us.
After all, every silver lining has a grey element.
And our colourful dreams are muted by darkened nightmares.
Recipe for a happier life:
Add lots of white, and make it the lightest shade of grey. For even a happy life is grey.
