Imagine we lived in a world that’s all of a sudden devoid of color, but where you’re given the option to have just one object keep its original hue. Which object (and which color) would that be?
There have been a few movies that went from black and white to technicolor and the impact on the mood of the movie was quite spectacular, just picture The Wizard of Oz. I would not want that to happen in the real world, though it would be fun painting flowers different colors. One of my favorite plants or shrub that I look forward to each and every spring is the lilac, so if I could have lilacs along with their scent as the sole color in an otherwise black and white world, it would help offset the dreariness, especially if the scent permeated throughout the air around me. Now if I could have lavender as well as lilac, because they are in the same color family, that would be even better. I know that I am being greedy, but the lavender scent is just as delicious in my opinion so that to have both scents surrounding me wherever I am would be heavenly.
