Journal Prompt # 1

1. Pretend that you are talking to a blind man and have to describe for him what "red" is. You should use narrative and descriptive writing techniques, and try to appeal to his other senses!

What "red" is, it's the representation of love, hate, affection, and other symbolic references. When people think of "red" they would automatically think what object appear to be "red." For example, when people think of a heart, they would think that it is colored red, because we are taught to think that hearts are red. People would also think of it in a form of violence, since blood is red and when there is violence involved, blood would be involved.
