this text has a kind of narrative voice, because it tells us different things about our life and the rest, about us.
The person who I think is narrating the story is someone who is very central to it, since he tells us everything in great detail and how he lives it from his experience, in addition to that he tells us what he thinks and how he does not narrate what happened.
The work that the narrator develops with the colors is that in this way it gives us a better look at how the type of color is related and that suddenly it can be an emotion or expression, thus understanding how a situation is described.
What the attached quote refers to may be that people who are important to us should always be in our thoughts and memories so that we can always remember how important that person is and what they have done for us so that they are always with us. U.S.
