What is the colour of the wind?

What colour is the wind? Is it white? Is it brown, white, or is it just colourless? An answer to this question depends entirely to the originality of the wind. If a little African child is raised in a European environment, he/she will know nothing of the African culture and norms but will think and act European. We are born into the culture but we are not born with a culture. Now you asking yourself how this relates to the colour of the wind, the wind’s colour depends on its originality. If the wind is blowing from the warm Indian Ocean it will definitely be a warm Mozambique Current wind, but if the wind is blowing from the cold Atlantic Ocean then it will be a cold Benguela Current. Also, the colour of the wind depends on its originality. If the wind is blowing from the desert with lots of sand particles in it, it is likely that it will be brown in colour, but if it blowing from the black Coal mines of Mpumalanga it is like that it will be black. So next time you think of the colour of the wind you need to consider where is the wind coming from. Whatever the colour the wind chooses to take, it will always remain wind...
