White!

As a kid, I always loved gems & their colours …
Especially the colours excited me a lot! So vibrant, so full of life!

Even then though, there was something about “white” that fascinated me.
Was it the serenity? Or the positivity it reflected with maintaining its calmness around?

As I grew up I was amazed to find resemblance in the gems their colours with my friends & their personalities.

I was still perplexed with the significance of white. Till I did the prism experiment in 7^th standard.
Remember the one when light passes through the prism to give all the colours?
It was an Aha moment for me…

Interestingly, as I grew up through adolescence into adulthood, I came across different personalities & people. All very unique!

Yet one thing seemed very similar, we all differentiate & distinguish.

By religions, by languages, by gender, by age. If not anything else by profession or intellect …

Most of the times, all this for a personal advantage.
Is it to satisfy our personal egos, or achieve our personal dreams & ambitions?
I never could fathom, but we all do differentiate & distinguish …only to divide.

I now realize, that’s why the fascination with “White”, I just love it!

So pure, so sacred …. It integrates the beauty of all the colours yet maintains its own elegance.

I wonder! What if we all could stand up & build our character like “White”
Yes, we all need our own existence & want to be the colour we wish to be.
At the same time, would it be possible for us - to align, integrate & elevate everyone around us? (Just like white does for the beauty of all the colours)  

Stand up for white! Stand up for peace, for purity of thoughts & intentions!

Let’s eliminate the differences, let’s build on their beauty & integrate them to harmonize the world.

Isn’t that the only way we all can contribute to making this world a better place to live in, than when we found it…..
