would be no fun."Orange started next to blow her trumpet:"I am the color of

health and strength. I may be scarce, but I am precious for I serve the needs

of human life. I carry the most important vitamins. Think of carrots, pumpkins,

oranges, mangoes, and papayas. I don't hang around all the time, but when I fill

the sky at sunrise or sunset, my beauty is so striking that no one gives another

thought to any of you."Red could stand it no longer he shouted out:"I am the

ruler of all of you. I am blood - life's blood! I am the color of danger and of

bravery. I am willing to fight for a cause. I bring fire into the blood. Without

me, the earth would be as empty as the moon. I am the color of passion and of

love, the red rose, the poinsettia and the poppy."Purple rose up to his full

height:He was very tall and spoke with great pomp: "I am the color of royalty

and power. Kings, chiefs, and bishops have always chosen me for I am the sign

of authority and

wisdom. People do not question me! They listen and obey."Finally Indigo spoke,

much more quietly than all the others, but with just as much determination:

"Think of me. I am the color of silence. You hardly notice me, but without me

you all become superficial. I represent thought and reflection, twilight and

deep water. You need me for balance and contrast, for prayer and inner

peace."And so the colors went on boasting, each convinced of his or her own

superiority. Their quarreling became louder and louder. Suddenly there was a

startling flash of bright lightening, thunder rolled and boomed. Rain started

to pour down relentlessly. The colors crouched down in fear, drawing close to

one another for comfort.In the midst of the clamor, rain began to speak:"You

foolish colors, fighting amongst yourselves, each trying to dominate the rest.

Don't you know that you were each made for a special purpose, unique and

different? Join hands with one another and come to

me."Doing as they were told, the colors united and joinedhands. We are one,

may look like many colours, our image may look that we're looking at many but

we believe in ONE god. Yours George Pillai Om Namah Shivaya
