… it is like when in a snowy day you look through the window and admire what you have in front of your eyes; everything moves slowly and looks light, clean, firm, immaculate. You can hear your breath and your heart beats. Newton proved that the white color is formed by the combination of other colors. In fact, the white light creates a rainbow with a full range of colors when it passes through a prism of glass. In the same way, White is the color that today can give peace to the different colors in the world.
