Who is that guy in the yellow tie? This is Matt. I work with Matt. Matt is quite amazing, especially when he wears this particular tie. It's yellow, and when Matt wears his yellow tie, there is a certain glow about him. He smiles differently, he walks with more confidence, he tells more jokes, and he just seems more mellow. Mellow Yellow.I have never taken a liking to the color yellow, mostly because I do not wear it well, but since seeing Matt wear his yellow tie I felt inspired to research the color yellow to get a better understanding of what makes yellow so very mellow.
Things that are yellow:
- the Sun
- Post its
- Bananas
- Lemonade
- Taxis
- School Bus
- 75% of the pencils in the U.S. are yellow
- Yellow Ribbons are a sign of hope, usually tied around an oak tree
- Coldplay has a song called "Yellow," The Beatles also have a song called, "Yellow Submarine"
- And my favorite and sort of ridiculous fact I learned about the color yellow is that the comic book character Green Lantern was afraid of the color yellow.
Thank you Matt for inspiring me to open my mind to the happiest color in the spectrum.
What is something yellow that you love?
