  • Quote

    It’s different and bold. It stands out amongst a blank world of black, white, and gray.

It’s leaves in the fall, carrots in Nana’s vegetable soup on a cold winter day, tulips in the spring, and the ladybugs in the middle of the grassy park on a hot summer afternoon. Orange is life. It’s unexpected but beautiful.

I didn’t want to know what the darkness there had done to her, if she would even recognize herself in my face.
