ROYGBIV
Color.....In High School, years ago, you were taught ROYGBIV....
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.....The
colors of the rainbow......
Early man duplicated some of these colors with basic pigments
and painted cave walls.....Today your local paint or hardware
store can convert ROYGBIV into 1,000 different shades, in
one brand of paint.....A second brand has another 1,000 shades....
And so on.......
There was no choice, years ago....Today you can have any color
you like....But it comes with at a dear price.....YOU do not know
what color you really want......The color on the chip or chart is
always different than on your wall......This leads to unhappiness,
confusion, mental stress and re-tint/repaint problems......
Life was much simpler when all you had was the seven colors
of ROYGBIV.......Sometimes "choice" is not good.....Pumps
