Once in a while, remembering the bad also helps you remember the good.
~~
Those colours to remember the bad too; the context of what made it hard; the insecurities that underscored "we have to keep this". The reality; the whole. Permission to feel the good in their rawest and truest form, and appreciation that next time we will be able to feel the good, without the burdens of the bad.
Also, the reminder of other colours, that there are others I can still relate to. Colours that speak "you are not alone ask you perceive yourself to be", infusing me with strength to carry on as I wait.
Note: If the second section after the "~~" doesn't make sense to you that is ok, it's not supposed to. (Also please know I am just being cryptic for my own sake because honestly I just wanted this in an accessible place to reference later, the full piece is not for publishing). The theme behind it however, is that sometimes remembering the bad in an overall good situation and not pushing it away can help you remember the realistic whole, including the real good that kept you there in an especially raw and authentic way.
