Brilliant Colors

If you have ever traveled to South America, you will be struck by how much color the average Brazilian manages to incorporate either on his / her person, car, or house. Vibrant yellows, blues and greens, loud, announcing, even, believe it or not on their tiny little thongs! The overall vibe seems to be life with intensity, not so serious, upbeat and a little outrageous. I have often wondered how color affects our thinking, does grey make you sad, all those neutral colors house sellers paint their houses, that never get changed, because they don't want to offend a buyer. Are they making millions of families really unhappy? There is nothing more depressing than 6 months of a very grey Scottish winter, where by March you are pleading for a glimpse of the sun........ Make your neighbor happy, find some colorful clothing, plant some bright flowers, paint a wall, perhaps some vibrant fruit on your desk, earrings, shoes, put a little color in your life, you might find a nicer, brighter person beside you tomorrow!
