#Knowthyself: MY Color Purple

I am a huge believer that everyone on this planet was born for a purpose, with a purpose. Now the trick is, how do you figure out what that purpose is? Well, it has everything to do with getting to know your creator and getting to know yourself! Nothing that you possess inside is in you by accident. So in between my classes the other day, I researched a few things about me, and boy was a blown away!

Since the dawn of time, my favorite color has been purple. I thought and confessed that I love purple because I wanted to stray away from every other pink obsessed girl, but after a little research, I discovered purple may have actually chosen me!

Purple embodies the balance of red's stimulation and blue's calm. This dichotomy can cause unrest or uneasiness unless the undertone is clearly defined, at which point the purple takes on the characteristics of its undertone. With a sense of mystic and royal qualities, purple is a color often well liked by very creative or eccentric types and is the favorite color of adolescent girls.

HOW THE COLOR PURPLE AFFECTS US PHYSICALLY

» Uplifts, Calms the mind and nerves, Offers a sense of spirituality, Encourages creativity

So all this time I've been making up reasons why I love purple, but really, purple is built into my make up! It's all about knowing and understanding yourself. Tapping into sides of yourself that you never even knew existed! If you learn something new everyday, why not make that thing something about YOU?
