essay I → colors

What one will argue on, is colors. Maybe just the color itself or what the color feels like. Every color gives off a emotion or feeling. Every color means something. I've discussed this topic with others before, in agreement. If you pay the attention, it can be that the color of the room walls or what colors are in the room, can control or change your mood in some way. Blue is calm. If you were to have a room that had a blue pattern to it, or blue walls, being in that room could give off a calm feeling. My grandparents had red curtains before. While those curtains stayed in that room, they argued, screamed, fought with each other everyday. Red is usually a symbol or representation of anger, or chaos. Most likely, it wasn't a coincidence, and the red curtains were giving off a feeling to make themselves feel more angered for a weak, logical explanation. Next time you are in a room, look at the colors, see if it affects your mood. Here is a reference of what colors and the emotions they give off are. Green would on default be, natural or peacefulness. Red could be a number of things, including anger, but also meaning characteristics like strength, warmth, which are  the positives and negatives of red. Blue is more calm, communication, and intelligence could all be associated with blue. There are more, but not all need to be listed. Negative effects could be coldness, unfriendliness, devotion of emotion. Yellow, in my perspective, gives off mostly good effects. Positive emotions could absolutely be feeling haopy, self confidence, creativity, emotional strength. Negatives of this, are very few, but could be irration, fear, anxiety, depression, or even suicide. I find that odd since I've seen it to be the happiest color. The wrong tone of any color could give off deadly negative effects (literally). Orange represents in some ways, food, warmth, security, passion, and fun. Although, it could cause frustration or immaturity in people. I believe pink to be my least favorite color, yet what it represents is important to me. Pink can mean, love, nurture, femininity, and sexuality. As always it has cons for the pros, physical weaknesses, emotional claustrophobia. The easiest color of all, grey. It's neutral, which is between good or bad, the scale tips neither way. Of course as I've experienced before, grey could cause you to feel depressed, drained of emotions, and have a lack of confidence. There are definitely other colors, or different effects these colors can have, different outcomes it can have on your day. In our everyday lives, colors prove to take a huge stand on who you are. Your favorite color does tell something about you. If you love green, your personality is most definitely more natural and peaceful. Pink? Maybe you are more feminine and lovey dovey like. Next time you go do something, look at the colors around you, be aware of how that we colors affect how your emotions were at that time.
