Blue

Some people noticing that I  painted a lot of red in the 1990s assumed that I loved it, they would even tell me frankly. - No, I answered, In fact I hate it, which is a good thing because I can do whatever I want to it.
I hated this colour so much that I finally learned to love it and today it is a favourite indeed.

My favourite colour as a child was blue.
Blue was allegedly the last colour to be given a name and therefore perceived to be distinctive.
