I See Colour

It struck me today.

I'm one of those awkward people that if I catch a strangers eye, I smile.
I've done it for as long as I can remember.

A black woman wearing a head scarf gave me a huge smile back earlier today. It felt lovely.
A brief positive connection with a stranger, another human being I don't know yet.

My first thought on the receipt of the big smile was that. I receive more/bigger smiles back from black people than I do white people.

I'm not even sure if this is true, but that was my thought and feeling.
Feelings matter in a world hurtling to an AI and Robotic future.

Conclusion: I see colour.
