Orange skyland. February 2008. Barangay Asin in Tuba, Benguet. Photo courtesy of my once favorite newspaper.
According to my good friend Gina, orange (the color not the Nueva Vizcaya fruit) has a calming effect. I’m not sure about that but maybe she’s right. Maybe this is the reason why God in his wisdom usually paints our sky orange. Maybe it’s his way of telling us, “Calm down, you silly people. Calm down.”
Anyways, it’s the middle of the week where I sit so I’m looking at this picture to calm myself down.
P.S. Sabi pala ni Gina, isang rason daw kung bakit orange ang kulay ng mga damit ng mga Ananda Marga at ng mga Buddhist monks ay dahil sa natatanging “calming effect” ng nasabing kulay na ito.
Why do you need to calm down when its the middle of the week? You may not answer po.
Almost all the clothes my second child got for Christmas and birthday from friends are orange. Now I know why(lol).
Hi Lovelyn,
Thanks hehe. Wednesdays are usually a busy day for me. Kasi parelaks relaks muna in the beginning of the week, then parelaks relaks din sa end of the week. Pero dapat focused sa middle of the week.
Siguro your friends want you to calm down :-)
