Today, V asked me what color reminded me of her. I told her that she was green, a sage green. Calming and putting her peace above everything. I told her I think that’s why we get a long so well. Because green reminds me of nature and nature always makes me feel at home.

She told me that I was purple. A lavender purple most days filled with kindness and calm. That I remind her of spring time because I can be bubbly and bright with the right people by my side. But I can also be dark purple, when I am passionate and standing up for what I believe in.

That made me think about the people that surround me, what colors they maybe.

My husband is yellow. (Reminds me of the song Yellow by Coldplay). He is bright and joy. He radiates happiness and makes me feel like a warm summer day. I’ve always called him my sun, he brought life to me when I thought my days were over.

My brother is blue. Which is calming, peace, authority. He reminds me of someone who is confident, does things his own way – no one else’s. But he is also one of the number one people that I trust and I hold that dear.

I encourage you to surround yourself with people who have complementary colors, like I do, it brings such balance and happiness.
