How colours can help
Aunt Betty in Canada
Dear Sister,
How are you It has been a long time since I last wrote to you. Last year was a bad year for me. I moved here with my son but my husband, Ben stayed in Beijing. Everything was very difficult for me. Every day, I took my son to school. After that, I came home and did the housework. __1__
Then a friend of mine asked me to join a colour course with her. Dr Reed was our teacher. She explained to us that colour is like medicine. It can change our moods and even make a sick person feel well again. __2__ There are only four colours in it. There are pictures with red shapes on the wall. The wall is painted green and there are a lot of green plants. The sofa is blue. The carpet is white and the cushions on the sofa are white too.
Later, she told me that red means power and strength. It cheers people up. __3__ It is also the colour of life. It is good for tired people like me. Blue is a peaceful colour. It balances our moods and brings us a feeling of calmness and
harmony. It can cool down a nervous person. If we sit on a blue sofa, we will feel relaxed. White is the colour of purity and cleanliness, in both mind and body. __4__.
At the end of the course, she gave me a list of colours and their functions. I do not know if my problems are solved, but I feel satisfied I am going to buy some new furniture and pictures. __5__
Love,
Betty

It is you who make this world so colourful!
