The Color Green

Green also known as midori in Japanese, a beautiful female name and also the name of a drink. In US, green is a synonym for money. In the Chinese culture, green sometimes can have the implication of infidelity -- to say a man (fairly gender specific) is wearing a green cap means his (female) partner is cheating on him. The saying is probably gender specific because of China's *polygamous tradition (not anymore, but this saying was probably invented quite a long time ago).

If you ask me what's my favorite color when I was a kid, I would have told you purple and blue. If you ask me now, I'd probably still say my favorite color is blue. I've never really looked at green when I was a kid. Green is, like a "nice guy," it's there, but nobody ever pays it any attention. But the color green had somehow found its way into my life.

First a green bagpack, followed by a green sweater. Next thing you know I bought my husband an entire wardrobe of green outfits. We have two green cars. My blog is predominately green. If I could have my ways, I'll probably have a green cat. I found green to be such a soothing color, no wonder it's referred to as one of the "earth tones." Isn't it strange how ones preferences just change so subtlely in life -- from like to dislike, or vice versa -- sometimes without one even noticing.
