Color Blind by Rhonda Hansome

I've conflicting feelings around the phrase, Color Blind.
When ever I see Color Blind ______ anything inserted in the blank, I feel there's possibly a self-serving trick or subterfuge involved.

I always wonder about overt, covert or historical reasons that necessitate the modifying phrase Color Blind in any context.

Be advised, I am clear that this short video is a commercial for Valspar.

I'm glad it made me pause.

I think I'll feel grateful for small blessings today and try to really enjoy the colors around me.
