Wall Paint

What is the significance of the colours of my bedroom walls? I'm genuinely curious here.

Does it say something about who I was when I picked them? About who I am now? I have three green walls, one yellow, and a giant purple built in wardrobe. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that that suggests I'm indecisive (which I am) and that I have crap taste in paint for walls. The yellow is nice, but the green- it's like mushed up pea green with cream in it.
But does it show that I'm ambitious too? That I'm a wild risk taker?
Even if my creative peak's a little low with respect to this, then at least I show vivacity in my choices, right?

I wonder if, in the huge future, when my kids or grandkids are sitting on the bed looking around with their hands folded between their knees, all choked up with nostalgia and sweet memories of me, they'll think I was cool or misguided...
Or if they'll be proud then I didn't do a standard pink or blue. I mean, come on, green? THat's pretty independent.
Or if my house will be torn down before then so the colour of my walls is of no consequence what so ever. What if a weird alien-bear hybrid species repaints without telling anyone? Then they'll get completely the wrong idea about me...
Argh, too many question marks.
