Fifty shades of Pink

pictures taken at Cherry Blossom Cove

The delicate pale pink Japanese cherry blossom petals have for thousands of years symbolized spiritual rebirth when they fall each year. Pink was all over in 2023 from Christmas Trees, decor, and even Santa in a pink coat. 

Why Pink? 

Pink just makes you think of warm Spring days and childhood innocence and it is not just for girls anymore, in fact, it was considered a masculine color before it was turned into the "pink is for girls" thing.

You will either love pink or hate it, but either way, pink is a color of calm and relaxation, it can have positive physical effects on the body. It’s been known to reduce anger and aggression, as well as stress levels. We sure needed that in 2023.

Don't worry pink is not fading away in 2024 because the new color will be fuzzy peach. Is that another shade of pink? Of course it is, it is changing its shade. Hold on to your Second Life pink Christmas decor, it may be in again this next season. After all everything old is new again.
