Woah! Finally 2 days of holiday for people struggling in their regular 9 to 5 jobs. And for the entrepreneurs, Ahh! We wonder if they are really taking a break from stringent schedule and involving themselves in Holi, festival of colors and happiness. Agreed, that not everyone wants to spare 2*16=32 hours for some short-lived enjoyment, but our family, friends and some special ones are worth it! Get along with your near and dear ones, lots of gossips and fights, play with colors and cards. And needless to say, you will not like to miss thandaai as well.
Would not like to bore the readers describing the reason for celebrating holi, do’s and don’ts, and so on. Instead, let’s inspect the most integral part of this festival, Colors. Every color is “just” a combination of red, green and blue color taken in a different proportion. Apart from the beauty, emotion and essence colors add to almost everything on this planet, it is possible to predict a person’s traits and personality by observing his likes and dislikes to particular colors. We just don’t choose our favorite color by its look and glaze. The complex brain circuitry has lot more to do there. Read how interestingly, your favorite color/colors can help in deducing your personality. Maybe not 100% ideal, reality is much expected!
