Is red the colour of love ?


Sometimes little things in life make us smile… It need not necessarily be a big-budgeted party or a big achievement.

Life moves on in its own way. We don’t know about our destination. We go on exploring and widening horizons. We get thrilled thinking about the long walks, late- night calls… blank pauses and apologetic notes like “No dear the button got pressed again unknowingly. Yours was the last call I made”.

Often little one-liners come— “I just felt like disturbing you”. Don’t know we continue with the same pretensions. Do we dare to accept that “we miss each other” when away? It is ambiguous…another question with no answers.

What else. Another new way of showing affection—a red rose or a bouquet of mixed colours…. or something new.

There is a small “token” for you…. something that can rejuvenate you. I wonder what this “red” symbolize…..a blood red purse and a red hot perfume. Is it an embodiment of love or is it another side of “sacrifice”?

It makes me think but confusion prevails. Another sleepless night, another area to contemplate and some more mysteries to unravel…. But what does red means. I ponder, “Is red the colour of love?”

Oh....is it so? Some people say red is the symbol of danger. So is love a dangerous thing?? I just thought about your thoughts. Really nice expressing your thoughts.

It is my personal experience that sometimes u miss someone and really want to share ur feelings -- yet, u think so much b4 calling him or her -- with some kind of insecurity or may be some fear, as y to disturb aanyone... But, the reverse happens -- when his or her phone bell rings -- u get such a nice response that u would miss if u had never called her up... And as far as red color is concerned... it is obviously a symbol of love... but for me, any color can be a symbol of love if it is added with love and care...
