When I was in my teens, my favorite color was red. Thinking about it now, it does speak a lot about how I felt and what I wanted. All emotions maximized, a strong determination to prove myself, the anger, the eruptions of pain.
Now in my twenties, blue is the color that I move the most towards. My headphones, my pen, my T-shirt, my scooter, my scrunchie, the ribbon around my dog’s neck, they’re all blue. Now I want to feel peaceful. I’ve given up the race and desire simplicity, quietness, and comfort. I’ve also felt a deep sense of sadness I hadn’t before, a sadness that drowns you slowly.
So today, I feel happy to compile blue quotes to illustrate the many meanings and colors of this hue. I hope you enjoy them a lot and paint your life with the color of the skies.
