Yellow…. color, emotion and/or insult???
So, i was talking to my girlfriend the other night. We were leaving target and I looked up at the sky. I asked her if she noticed that people often refer to the stars as yellow. I pointed out the fact that they appear to be white. I was a little sad because when I was younger, yellow was my favorite color.
I can’t say that I have a favorite color now. People often assume that my favorite color is blue but I really don’t know. I wear blue a lot. It’s my safety color. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a great color and I feel good when I see it. So, I guess it is my favorite color.
Ok, back to yellow… I remembered as a kid, yellow was my favorite color. Everyone I knew was a baby blue fan, a red fan or a black fan. I was a yellow fan. People would ask me, “why?” My response was always “because that’s the color of my spine/back” But, the reason was really, it’s what I considered to be the color of the sun, the moon and the stars. It made things grow and on a winter day, it warmed things up just right. Remember, I was a kid. I loved lemons, grapefruits and bananas. Yellow was the trump card. To me, everything was possible because of the color yellow. Without yellow, life would not be…. Right?
I’ve always considered yellow to be very underrated. It really is a gorgeous color and you look great in it.
Fuck you Coldplay…. Seriously.
