Color Affinities and Imposition

J loves the color blue lately. Before it used to be pink. I am concerned at her change of heart and wonder if there is something on her mind that dictates this change. Being uber sensitive about color, I went ahead and harangued her at length on why blue is a no-no in my book. How happiness and affinity for certain colors are related. She listened quietly as she always does. Later , I googled on blue to see what it is all about…also trying to discover why I don't like almost any shade of it.

Of course at a deeper level I am concerned at her new love for this color because of it's associations with R. He loved it and made me start to like it - almost unconsciously. I had to work myself out of blue and took some effort. That was the thing about R he could cause me to morph without my knowledge. I would know it only after the effect and often that was too late.

I looked up color therapy and took the Lusher's Color Test. It analyzed me pretty good.

Blue could mean different things to different people. It could mean calm, controlled, tranquil and empowered to J and merely depressing to me. I however impose my world view on my little girl like many over-zealous parents do. I justify myself saying I am trying to protect her. Who knows what my real motivations might be..
