I’m sorry to say that next to red, pink is one of my least favorite colors. I think it’s because, in my mind, pink has always been the color that represented femininity. I remember when I was young, adults would often dress me in pink, trying to make me into a “real” girl, as they say.

If you look in my closet nowadays, you won’t find any pink clothing. I’m a dark color kind of person. The most vibrant piece of clothing I own is probably an orange jacket. I’d gag if anyone tries to put me in pink these days.

Can you tell I was never a girly girl?

Although, I must admit, pink can indeed be a pretty color, especially for a flower. Still, not my favorite color though not a bad color to put in the garden to add a pop of color among all the purples, yellow, and violets.
