People are like colours. Some are black - dark and depressing. Some are white - Innocent. Children are Yellow - optimisitic and cheerful. Youth is Orange - like yellow but more passionate. Red - fully physical and passionately lustful. Some are green people. They live for others. And there are the purple ones - the ones who expect others to serve them. Browns are practical. Blues are escapists.
Then there are the grey. Generally unnoticeable. Having no particular characteristic that stands apart. Boring? Yes. Stoic? Maybe. Their virtue? Predictability. Grey is defined as a neutral achromatic colour somewhere between black and white. I guess that's how the world looks at people who are grey. Colourless and forgettable.
I'm a grey. I like to think of myself as one of those. Why? Because I love grey. And I have my reasons.
Grey doesn't stand out. It's the colour of backdrops. It's the colour of mounts on which the layout has to be seen at its best. The colour of professionals. The colour of knowledge, technology, logic, balance and reason.
They say when you mix all the pigment colours you get black. And when you mix all light colours you get white. Both of these are absolutes. When you mix these two absolutes, you get grey. This makes grey the most inclusive colour in the universe. Multidimensional and deep. That's what grey is.
You can have any colour you like. I love grey. It has all the colours in it anyway.

'Pretty lovable' post.
Well, Grey is interesting. The color of clouds about to melt into rains... The color of shyness, intelligence, and industry. The color of practicality.
Maybe you are all these, I think, from the posts.
You are a wonderful writer who hides gems deep in your mind;they do brilliantly shine through.I love reading your blog.
