Ward No. 6" 2 Anton Pavlovich Chekhov plain 2021-12-17T19:13:17+00:00 Swarthmore Russian 037 1892 Anton Pavlovich Chekhov 55.57562755503289,38.170709609985344 Yes, I understand that this is difficult and even dangerous for people who already are exhausted due to constant cold, diseases, and poor food, plus multiple previous hunger strikes. But "dangerous" does not equal to "meaningful" and "heroic." The whole idea of a hunger strike as an instrument of potential dying in the name of an idea is devaluated by such "symbolic" actions. I understand when you are on a hunger strike trying to obtain something you cannot obtain by any other means: freedom, your legal rights, whatever. When you are on a symbolic hunger strike for a day or two, just because you are supporting something or protesting against something, but not pursuing any tangible goals, you are a meaningless moron. People in Russian prisons and camps are starving by months, and the system does not do anything to save them; how do you think the system feels about a planned one-day refusal to eat? You are just ridiculous. The color of happiness and optimism. Yellow is a cheerful and energetic color that brings fun and joy to the world.

(In the play, “jealousy” means “suspicion” before some smartypants points it out.) JonFruitPsychological research helps uncover why abstract concepts like hope become tied to certain colors.

Tunisian Arabic: “The world darkened in my eyes/I saw everything dark” (I was mad with anger); “I made my eyes red to her” (I gave her an angry look); “His eye is rough”, “His eye is salty”, “His eye is spicy” (he is envious).

In color psychology, green promotes balance and harmony. Its association with hope springs from these feelings of stability. Color meanings come from a variety of places. Some are primal, like the color green’s association with growth and fresh vegetation. Others developed later from modern environments people found themselves contending with, like the color green’s association with poison and death for 18th century Europeans (due to the era’s green dye containing arsenic). And sometimes color meanings can change over time, like how green’s association changed from the color of poison to the color of freshness and vitality (an association you’ll see today in many eco-conscious and plant-inspired brands).

You’ll be breathless by the end.” Daily Mail I lost count of the number of work strikes and hunger strikes that the political prisoners had to put on to reclaim some consistency to their lives and to the rules that were quoted at them, by which they were meant to live. Towards the end Irina did nearly die and as she nears death she humorously reports that even that family of mice that she had been training to keep her sober and vigilant left her cell. It was only her last near death experience that made the KGB retreat from trying to destroy her mind and faith, and trying to destroy her support for her fellow political prisoners. She was twenty eight when she went into prison and therefore relatively strong, but many who were imprisoned alongside her were much older and more fragile. Green is the color to represent hope. It’s the color that mainly symbolizes growth, harmony and nature.
