Green: Color Of Life
............The modern English word "green" comes from the Middle English and Anglo-Saxon word "grene", from the same Germanic root as the words "grass" and "grow".
It is the color of living grass and leaves and as a result is the color most associated with springtime, growth and nature.
Green is the color most commonly associated with nature, youth, spring, hope and envy. In China, its associations are very positive, as the symbol of fertility. Because of its association with youth, it is sometimes used to describe someone who is inexperienced.
In the Middle Ages and Renaissance, when the color of clothing showed the owner's social status, green was worn by merchants, bankers and the gentry,even The Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci wears green, the benches in in the British House of Commons are green,Green is also the traditional color of safety and permission; a green light means go ahead, a green card permits permanent residence in the United States.
It was the color of the banner of Mohammad, and is found in the flags of all Islamic countries, and represents the lush vegetation of Paradise. Because of its association with nature, it is the color of the environmental movement.
Political groups advocating environmental protection and social justice describe themselves as part of the Green movement, some naming themselves Green parties. This has led to similar campaigns in advertising, as companies have sold green, or environmentally friendly, products.
And this why I love colour green.
I love green!
