A middle of the road person tends to fail because they don't anticipate extremes. Children have heightened senses which after becoming adults tend to dull over time. A solid sense of awareness should be nurtured even in typically benign situations. The colors representing distinctly different types of input and the white light representing a desired output.

Awareness is key to avoiding potential pitfalls such as bad decision making.
There is a certain amount of predictability even in the most uncertain circumstances. Drop some playing cards from a height of six feet. Notice how some cling together and some land apart. A pattern will be revealed in which objects or events take place in clumps. A pattern is more likely to continue than not continue.
