It’s bizarre for me to use the above phrase when I have dreaded the Red color in any form to maintain my calm and peace.
I would like to apologize to people who love red color, as unlike them, I was never able to associate red color with energy (aggression) or love. I have always held red with darkness especially the blood red color due to its association with death. If anyone has any qualms on my thoughts for red please scrutinize the title of Hindi movie “Red: the Dark Side”. Even the phrase Paint it Red originates from Melton Mowbray town which is well-documented and which also conveys to being involved in riotous spree. But this time red has not petrified but exposed its optimistic light on me.
Early this morning when I woke up and plugged in my Television set, I watched the song Ik Junoon (Paint it red) from Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. Trust me it gave me passion to move forward in my life. True to the lyrics of the song I forgot all about the past, broke all the chains and left all the complications behind to live for the moment. Music has always played a vital role in my life but never knew it will lend a hand to lift my spirits once again after an infuriating last week where surviving even one day was tough for me. Due to mental chaos, I met with three accidents in a row but would say that With the Grace of God almighty, that time passed. I know this time will also pass but before this time goes away, I want to go on and on. I request all that please don’t go green, let’s try together to view the world with different glasses and take the world and paint it red. So if anybody wants to celebrate the Tomatino festival in India instead of Spain this June to pristine after so much madness around them during and before this fest, do let me know. I would surely join. I am on cloud nine for no good reason apart from hoping to paint everything around me Red. I hope this doesn’t become another cliché which I would regret later in life.
