I love that concept!
Phenomenology - my version of the colour green might be your version of blue.

Fascinating stuff - Merlot-Ponty and Sartre argued about it for years.

that colour perception thing blows my mind
I've never successfully discussed it with anyone

I'm honestly not sure how I'd discuss it at any length
Other than to maybe go into a 'social contract' thing about agreed-upon notions of what is green/blue etc.

that's just it
how can you get across to someone how you perceive a colour?

That could explain
why some people are good at matching colours and others aren't. At least, that's what I like to believe, as it's a good excuse for a girl like me who always seems to put together the wrong clothes.

I love that too
I think I tought about that thing of the colours without anyone telling me, and I was so proud of myself. Until I realize there was a whole science behind it :(
