essential

i was wearing a green shirt this morning.

i passed two garbage collectors and both were also wearing green.

i passed a construction site and one of the two workers i saw was wearing green.

i chuckled to myself, 'we're late for st. patrick's...'

and then while i was walking to a fastfood, i noticed several people also wearing green.

eh?

do i just have a heightened awareness of the color today?
(green mind, hehe)

was i attracting it?
(the secret)

or

could it be there's a significance to green for today?

there was one time i noticed an unusual number of people wearing black.  i found out later it was in solidarity for something.  uhhh!!!  i missed the memo!  had i known i also would have worn black.

anyway, i remember this maricel soriano movie line,
"wala sa damit, wala sa kulay...  nasa puso, nasa utak..."
->  it's not in the clothes, it's not in the color...  it's in the heart, it's in the mind...
