The use of the word pink as a color first occurred in the 17th century to describe the light red flowers of pinks. The color pink itself is a combination of red and white. (From Wikipedia)
"The Bible calls debt a curse and children a blessing; but in our culture, we apply for a curse and reject blessings. Something is wrong with this picture."

I like the knowledge you gave us. The photo is so very lovely. Now I’m wondering where the word “pink” itself came from!
