Black White
Some People Get Carried Away By Black
There is something darkly attractive about black that cannot be denied. Who is not seduced by the mystery and magic of black? Black is mysterious because it is the void of impenetrable space. It is associated with evil because it is frightening by nature. As a fashion statement, it is also sometimes overused.
The group that uses black to best effect is probably bikers. The biker chooses black because he wants to look intimidating. He wears black leather, from his boots to his leather pants and all the way up to the black helmet he puts on before he gets on his gleaming black motorbike with its shiny chrome detailing.
Somewhat incongruously, fashion designers love to wear all black, too. In their case, it is not to inspire fear, but to inspire admiration. Black, like a black limousine, is the color of class and sophistication. Used creatively and tastefully, it is the ultimate fashion statement. The fashion designer, with his expensive black sport watch with its shiny chrome face displayed boldly on his wrist, is showing the world that he has style.
Goths, on the other hand, take ebony way too far. Instead of using it just for their clothing and maybe a few ornaments, everything they have has got to be black. It becomes almost farcical, especially when they dress their baby in black and even decorate its room with black baby furniture! Who are they trying to kid? Are they making a statement? If so, it’s lost on the rest of us, who instead of feeling frightened, just smile and shake our heads!
Blackness is always synonymous with the darker side of life. Look in a thesaurus and words like funereal, somber and pessimism will be all you will find. Antonyms will include light, hope and optimism. Why anyone would choose to be completely pessimistic is hard to fathom.
In between black and white are all the colors of the rainbow. The dance of life is in the play of color. Take a pure white light and shine it into a prism. It is broken up into a dazzling array of color. White light is what gives life its color and richness.
Of course, many people get carried away with white, too. They wear all white because of its purity. Given the nature of life, those who avoid color one way or the other are missing out on much that life has to offer! Those who choose all white are denying life in a similar way to those who choose its opposite. We’re a mixture of black and white and all the colors in between. Why get hung up on just one when there are so many to choose from?
