Cyan
Cyan
Etymology: The color of lush growth (life) 生 that burns red 丹
青 is a very special color in Chinese, mostly thank to one common idiom: 青出于蓝 (cyan comes from blue = ‘the pupil often surpasses the master’).
As a result of its association with nature, cyan is considered a pure and primary color and is linked to life, springtime, and youth. A ‘cyan glance’ (青睐) says that you are in somebody’s good graces and ‘going directly to the cyan clouds’ (青云直上) means you are advancing rapidly in your chosen career.
Chinese is a vast language. The most recent, comprehensive dictionary of Chinese characters listed over 85,000 characters, but this number also included variants and obsolete characters. Most experts estimate there are between 40,000 and 50,000 modern characters. A well-educated citizen rarely knows more than 7,000 and basic literacy is established at 2,000. Mastery of the 汉语水平考试 , the Chinese equivalent of the TOEFL or IELTS test, requires memorization of 5,000 characters.

It's a cruel cruel world, to face on your own, A heavy cross, to carry alone, The lights are on, but everyone's gone, And it's cruel It's a funny way, to make ends meet, when the lights are out on every street, It feels alright, but never complete, without you, I trust you, if it's already been done, undo it, It takes two, it's up to me and you, to prove it, All the rainy nights, even the coldest days, you're moments ago, but seconds away, The principal of Nature, it's true but, it's a cruel world,
We can play it safe, or play it cool, follow the leader, or make up all the rules, whatever you want, the choice is yours, So choose, I trust you, if it's already been done, undo it, It takes two, it's up to me and you, to prove it

We know that the nature of genius is to provide idiots with ideas twenty years later.
Louis Aragon
Nature is not cruel, pitilessly, indifferent. This is one of the hardest lessons for humans to learn. We cannot admit that things might be neither good nor evil, neither cruel nor kind, but simply callous -- indifferent to all suffering, lacking all purpose.
Richard Dawkins
