Red!

A color that has always triggered deepest feelings in people. Red is the color of warmth, but also of love. It also stands for happines and security. It always triggers a nice feeling in you when you are sitting in a car and driving towards the sunset. The sky changes from a bright yellow to a deep, gaudy red.

But red is not only a good color. It is not only associated with good memories. It also stands for blood. From every wound you have, this warm red liquid flows out and leaves ugly scars. But I associate red most with fire. The burning fireplace, as the crackling becomes louder and louder and the black coal slowly turns white. It is not just a color with many meanings. It also left a deep scar in me, in my heart.

Red is my color!
