White in Nature

Can white be beautiful? I look at all the colors in my kid's paintbox and wonder!  A white canvas or paper looks unappealing but beautiful when immersed in colors. Sure "white" is associated with purity, but can I wear a pure white dress and not be intimidated by the way I look? Surely not. Though a white dress is associated with a sign of mourning and a way of expressing sadness in some cultures, can one look good and not be intimidated by wearing a totally white accessory? I always wonder. Many (including me) have totally avoided wearing a white outerwear for many reasons; from being too bright, for not being visually appealing, and for fear of stains. Many idioms have been associated with sound "white" as boring ( "plain vanilla"). A dirt or a small stain is predominantly visible and looks more ugly on a white dress when compared to a stain on any colored dress.I believe a white dress overshadows his/her personality. This may be one of the reasons many are comfortable wearing a totally black dress.In black, the personality of the person(self) is more visible than his/her accessories. I like and prefer sober colors.It always blends in with my personality.We may not be fashion designers in blending pure white as a dress on us. If great designers do exist in blending white, the designs may not be easily visible or accessible to a common man. Well, that's where Nature comes in to fill the gap.
On one of those snowy days, I was able to look, enjoy and marvel the craftsmanship by Nature.I was surprised by the power of "Nature" to perfectly adorn pure white on to itself.Never have I dreamt or imagined white or a white accessory so pretty. The carving of icicles on trees are perfect and for a minute, I thought the trees have blossomed snow flowers. For that minute I believed in fairies and snow angels. For a moment I was a child looking and absorbing all the wonders and crazily clicking my digital camera. I even regretted and wished for a camera that had the power to capture images that my eyes could see.But the next moment, I had to come back to reality and overcome the hurdles and dangers of having to drive my vehicle in the excess snow. Happy for small mercies, my mind time and again goes back to that happy moment where it was able to block all the perils and dangers of the aftereffects.
Mother earth is a billion years old. It has been recycling many of its resources again and again. It remains pure and delicate. The years have added to her beauty. Though man over generations has been using its natural resources, changing its physical appearance by building roads, bridges and dams, it remained strong.Though many pollutants have been added to its surroundings, still nature remains pure, innocent and pretty. Well, now I truly believe in the power of nature.​
