Let’s look at a script for this section
“Black also reminds me of the immense power it holds. I think of black holes that govern the
functioning of the universe. The color of void space is also black. This color not only represents infinity, but
also shows how the most beautiful things like stars and galaxies look radiant with this color in the background.
Look beneath your feet, the caves and mines are dark. Black engulfs the underworld. Raise your head high and
look at the sky. The stars shine the brightest against the dark backdrop of the night sky. The night, which has
its own awe and enigma, adds mystery due to the black color.
The panthers in the forest, the black rose blossoming in the shrubs and the black coal that powers our
civilization add an altogether different charm to this elegant color.”
