J'ai envie de vert


The colour green has never really appealed to me. It always reminded me of unpleasant things and I preferred not to have it around, or on clothes I wore. Yes I love nature, but the colour green in there is organic and you do not perceive it as being a colour. It is rather a state of mind when you are in the woods or near a lake, and so you do not react to it. It is yet different when you wear it – or when you see others wear it.

Imagine that, under these circumstances, I have started to fancy and to wear green in the past year. There are green clothes in my wardrobe and there are green jewels that I have got myself. Wherever I see green, my feeling is of bliss, and the nuances startle me. I wonder what has grown inside me to make me feel like this.

A quick googlesearch says that: “Green is the color of nature, fertility, life. Grass green is the most restful color. Green symbolizes self-respect and well being. Green is the color of balance. It also means learning, growth and harmony. Green is a safe color, if you don't know what color to use anywhere use green.
Green is favored by well balanced people. Green symbolizes the master healer and the life force. It often symbolizes money. It was believed green was healing for the eyes. Egyptians wore green eyeliner. Green eyeshades are still used. You should eat raw green foods for good health. Friday is the day of green. Green jade is a sacred stone of Asia.”
So I guess it's good news.


PS: Last night I went to the Muse concert in Bucharest and it was awesome! I loved the music and the atmosphere, the show was flawless, Matt's voice one of the best I have ever heard in a live concert, perfectly matched with the music and so psychedelic. My veins were flowing Muse-blood when I left there.
Everything about you is how I wanna be
Your freedom comes naturally
Everything about you resonates happiness
Now I won't settle for less
Give me all the peace and joy in your mind
(Muse, Bliss)
