The Parable of the Rainbow Colors²
Juan M. Flavier
It all started as innocent statements by each of the colors. No attempt was made by anyone to denigrate the others. There was even an element of restraint and humility.
But as time went on, the colors declaration became stronger and haughty with an overtone which tended to put down the other colors. Their claim became very explicit as to who was the best color.
It reaches the point when the colors were actually quarrelling.
Said the color Red, 'I am the brightest for red is the most striking. Why? Life's sustaining blood is colored red. i represent courage and bravery. Even love symbols such as heart and roses are colored red.
The color Yellow retorted, "What can be brighter than my yellow exemplified by the sun? I am the color of gaiety and of warmth. Without me, only the eye-glaring ones remain.
What outlandish claims!" interposed the color Orange. 'Sunrise is orange, not yellow. I am more important because I represent health and strength. Look at the ripened fruits and vegetables, they are predominantly orange.
"Well, if you are talking about vegetables and leaves you are referring to my color declared the color Green. "I am the symbol of life. All that thrives in the fields and the forests is the greenery I provide. I am the most important color."
The color Blue could not help it anymore, so it shouted, "What can be more expansive than the sky and the seas? Do you forget that the farthest skies and the deepest seas are blue? I represent patriotism. I stand for the depth of feelings and extensive spaces.
The color indigo came out with the statement. "You talk about wide areas. I hope you realize that the largest area in the world is silence, and I represent that dimension with my color. It means thoughtfulness. It is prayer expressed in the deepest of feelings.

Answer:
To what do you compare yourself? Why?
I compare myself to the color pink because it is the universal color of love, both for myself and others. Friendship, tenderness, harmony, inner serenity, and approachability are all represented by this color. As a small girl, this is our official color, and it symbolizes candy, spice, and all things lovely. The color pink is the feminine counterpart of the color red which simply describes me.
Pink is associated with femininity and affection, as well as sensitivity and gentleness. It's naturally nice, cute, and endearing. In addition, hot pink is meant to convey fun, which is my other personality, while soft pink is supposed to convey tenderness, which is my other personality.
