What color describes your personality and why? We all know that colors have meaning. So, which color best describes who you are and why? Read on for my thoughts on this question, and let me know yours.

When I was a child, my favorite color was green. I have no idea why. I just decided one day that it was green, so that is what I always said whenever someone would ask me. As I write this, I’m wearing a green shirt I have had forever. My wife hates this green shirt, yet I continue to wear it. Why? Maybe because it’s green. Who knows?! The color green means life, so this shirt continues to live on.

As an adult, my favorite color is red. I think red is a fabulous color. It’s eye-catching, makes a statement, and there is something about it I enjoy. When I bought new glasses recently, I wanted red ones, like Sally Jessy Raphael. I didn’t find any, so I opted for butterscotch and a pair of prescription sunglasses with translucent blue around the eyes and tortoiseshell for the arms. Both make a statement, but they aren’t red. My Sally Jessy moment is yet to be.

What does the color red mean? It represents physical energy, lust, passion, and desire. All sounds good to me. Being virile and driven creates the potential for boundless opportunities and accomplishments. It’s as if I went from being alive (i.e., green) to living (i.e., red) over the past several decades. We’re supposed to mature and evolve. So, I’ll take it! My phone is red, and so am I.

How about you? What color describes your personality and why? Has it changed over time as mine did? What do you think that says about you as a person? Whatever your favorite color is, don’t feel trapped by it. Instead, let it embolden you to live your life the way you want and fully realize your potential.
