COLOR

I have been asking many different people about color. What is the color of hope? Fear? Sorrow? Joy? Determination? And many others.
It started as a research project for a book I am writing. As I asked different peaple I noticed some interesting patterns.
Hope: Most chose light colors.
Fear: Mostly dark colors but there were also some light ones.
Sorrow: Most said blue some said black.
Joy: Mostly yellows and greens.
Determination: Mostly blue some green some yellow.
There were other patterns too. People who feel stronger emotions chose more vibrant colors. Those who do not chose quieter colors.
I have noticed another pattern with the emotions that have the same colors for a certain person.
For example Kayti chose red for love, anger, hate, excited and energetic.
Savannah chose black for anger and sorrow.
Lauren chose pink for love, excited and energetic.
Andrew chose grey for tired, worry and confused.
There have been others that I have asked and they have their own patterns too.
Do you see how the the emotions are related to each other in the color they chose? It tells something of their characters. Their strong emotions and their not so strong ones. The emotions that use the same part of them.
It has been a very interesting study. And i have learned much from it, although I did not do it for character study of my friends.
