Does a color remind you of someone in your life?  Purple is my mom; she loved irises and lilacs and had a purple bedroom.  Pink represents a sparkling and embracing group of friends in my life who wear tiaras.  Blue is my sister Jeanne, who loves the ocean.

But orange is Kristi, a dear friend who graduated from Oklahoma State University.

I seldom see her without orange somewhere on her person and as a result, I can’t see the color orange without thinking of her and smiling.

What a beautiful color it is.

And what a nice thing, to be reminded of a friend, whenever I see it.
