colors

[asakiyume]

On Friday, people were in arresting colors. Taking Wakanomori in to work, I saw a girl wearing bright orange hightops, like in the upper right corner (only brigher).

Then on my way to the jail, I saw a mother and daughter, daughter on a tiny two-wheeler bike, mother alongside, like bottom right. They both had robin's-egg blue headgear: a bike helmet for the little one, a baseball cap for the mom.

Then *at* the jail, in the lobby, there was an older woman in a bright pink track suit, with black boots with bright flowers and leaves embroidered at the top--red, pink, yellow. It reminded me of Eastern European motifs, Ukrainian Easter eggs and Polish embroidery and such. This woman was looking at a picture book, The Girl Who Spun Gold, and my impression of the book cover was that it was all warm greens, golds, and browns (though looking at it online I see it's not really quite like that).



Here's a song by Utada Hikaru called "Colors," to go with the post.

Do you react to seeing people wearing bright colors?

I generally feel positive vibes from seeing them. They're cheerful, or something.

I think yeah, I generally have the same reaction you do!
