Color surrounds us. It runs in us and through us. We feel it. Why? Colors are simply broken down white light, refracted and reflected at different wavelengths. Each wavelength in turn creates a separate color. Colors and feelings go hand in hand as colors have a strong relationship with the mind. Many people have a favorite color that best represents who they are internally. You can gauge a lot about a person from their color choices and preferences. In fact, Let’s run through the list according to the rainbow:
