Very interesting! Thanks for sharing this. My favorite color was always purple until I experienced a lot of trauma. Now I noticed all I buy is black clothing, accessories, etc. I have even painted my bedroom purple and have black/white flower photos, black /white bedding & curtains, etc. It looks nice but a few years ago I would never have considered perky purple with black for my room. But I think those colors described above show how I was (purple) and how maybe my bad experiences made me stronger (black). It makes sense to me.
