Colour My World was a song sung by Petula Clark written by Tony Hatch and Jackie Trent. Featured by BBC Television in the UK launch of the colour service to BBC2 which gave the song a high profile.
What we like
- The words colour the song with the feeling of love flowing through your life
Soul experience
- The colours of life are vibrant and alive when there is love within us. The transformational effect of love moves us to become aware of all that is beautiful around us. How are we able to experience this feeling daily, perhaps every minute? Is this practical? If we are truly present we are able to experience this. This perfection is always around us and it will reveal itself here right now
To reflect on
- So you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day
Oh you can colour my world with happiness all the way
Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above
And if you colour my world, just paint it with your love
Just colour my world

Reinhold Niebuhr – serenity prayer
“God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.”
Martin Luther King Jr – light & love
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate only love can do that.”
T. S. Eliot – beginning
“For last year’s words belong to last year’s language. And next year’s words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning.”
St. Jerome – good, better, best
“Good, better, best. Never let it rest. ‘Til your good is better and your better is best.”
