MY RENDEZVOUS WITH LIFE PART- 2


Colors of my palette. 
Colors of my palette, I am born with.

If my rendezvous with life -1 is the sketch of my life, then there has to be some colors, with which I tried to fill it to make it a painting. If my destiny played an important role in making my sketch, then the colors are also provided by destiny for sure. 
Bragging people
Okay, okay (I do not want to offend people who cried horse over the statement that we are the choosers, and we make our own destiny). Well even they won't disagree, that we can not choose our parents and siblings and place and time of our birth. Our parents can decide it, be the of time and place of our birth (thanks to our modern science) but certainly not we. So one thing is for sure that destiny decide our colors(family and extended families, including place) too. I will be talking about people in my life as colors, as they are the ones, who helped me to paint my picture. We all want our painting to look beautiful but somehow it does not turn that way, over the years our palette, start gathering dust or I can say a few very dark gory colors. And with the result, we happened to be more disappointed with our painting than others. Please, do not misinterpret me colors are colors, there are no good colors or bad colors. Each one has its own significance and no painting would be complete without using them. I have talked about them at length in my post in Journey of Beings of light towards light, that how our disposition can be judged by our particular color aura, which we emit. There is saying also that "people show their true colors after sometime". We cannot hide it, but yes we can certainly improve it, by following certain steps: improvisation of Aura & chakras. I think most of the people are like a flock of colored parrots repeating same things.
Anyways, I have noticed that people can be categorized into a few basic colors according to their traits.
Saffron color of saints
Generally women talk about their beauty, age, and bragging or lamenting about their husbands and kids. (me too, I am not an exception.) And well, if men have little interest in these talks, then money, intelligence, power, and their infallible ego takes toll on their personality or their painting. Precisely colors can make you happy, sad, serene, violent, aggressive, evil, honest and pure. If the "fifty shades of grey" can lure you to sensual pleasure. Then white can show you the way to stay virgin, innocent and pure. Each color has significance, some good and bad virtues. Red is associated with energy, war, danger and strength. Orange combines the energy of red with the happiness of yellow. it is associated with joy, sunshine happiness and creativity. Yellow is the color of happiness, joy, intellect and creativity. Whereas Green denotes growth, harmony freshness and fertility. Blue is often symbolizes with trust, loyalty, wisdom, intelligence, faith, truth and heaven. Purple conveys  wealth, extravagance  wisdom, dignity, independence and creativity. In the end whereas black can make you elegant and powerful but it is also associated with death, evil and mystery. So we have seen every color has a few good and bad points. If Saffron denotes aggression, Green can push you to be jealous and greedy. And no body would love to watch painting absolutely white or black. as it wont be a painting rather a piece of colorless paper. Now I am taking all these colors in the perspective of religions in India. We are multilingual, multi-religious nation. We as its inhabitant has the tremendous responsibility to balance its colors, only then we can paint a beautiful painting of our country.
 Roaring dark clouds with a hint of rainbow.
Cool shade
I have a very strange relationship with colors, they confused (coaxing/pampering) me in Chicago, and became cool shade in Houston and Galveston. And not very long back, I could see the importance of saffron (Guru) in my life. Found the lovely yellow (faith) color in prayers and with the help of red(rage) tried to empower my internal demons. The color green helped me with creativity and blue provided serenity and peace. So dear readers/ friends if roaring black thunderstorms are scary, let it settle down for sometime, you would be seeing a beautiful rainbow peeping through them.   
In the end I would suggest, that if relations are like colors. So in a  way our methods of dealing  or our manners would be like color pencils. All we have to do, is to sharpen them once a while, so that they won't get blunt. It is your canvas, your color palette, let the painting be good, so that, you would feel proud of it. 
Another suggestion:  
DO NOT GIVE YOUR HALF PAINTED SMUDGED PICTURE TO YOUR CHILDREN, IT IS NOT A LEGACY TO PASS OVER YOUR HATE, REVENGE AND YOUR MISDEED TO THEM. YOU HAVE PROVIDED THEM A FRESH BEAUTIFUL CANVAS. LET THEM EXPLORE THEIR OWN LIFE AND MAKE THEIR OWN PAINTING.

Sharpened colors. symbolizing our mending manners.
