technically black and white are not a color.. in arts, white is the absence of color while black is the presence of all colors. right?..^_ and in physics.. black is the absorption of all colos while whit is the reflection of all.^_ black is the shade of object that do not reflect light in any part of the visible spectrum.. when i read this.. I realize this thing.. We have a colorful life. right?.. so there's no such thing we called white or black?and that's true..^_ we dont have a perfect/very good situation or things and a very bad,ugly situation or thing in our life. there are things happen that you thought it's bad but the truth is there's a purpose why it's happen. because there's a good things will happen.. uhmm.. that's what i realize.. how about you?^_^

For me black and white are colors. If somebody asks an Asian girl the color of her black hair, how would she be able to describe it if its not red/brown/gray/etc.? I also think that 'white' is different from 'colorless'. Like the bond paper which is usually white, its color is different from the color of water which is 'colorless'. Also, how can there be a 'pink' if there is no 'white' to be added to 'red'?; or how can there be a 'gray' when there is no 'black' to be added to 'white'?. As far as the eyesight is concerned, I believe that black and white are colors. In life, I've also experienced a definitely good and definitely bad event. For example, violence is definitely bad, and love is definitely good...there are only few cases in my life where situations are in the "gray areas".
