humility and restraint but as time went on
the colors’ declaration became stronger,
where it reaches to a point that they were
actually quarrelling.”
“The change made them realize the
importance of each color.”
“Ma’am rain emphasized the need for
cooperation because if we work in harmony
everything will be easy and beautiful.”

like a new beginning will come.”
