The sun has the resemblance of an orange in many aspects or vice versa. The sun is a very beautiful as well as powerful source of energy for the world. An orange complies with those demands of the sun, but in terms of nutrition and health. An orange provides the human body with a very valuable source of vitamin C. The sun as well as an orange goes by hand because, without the sun; there would be no oranges and fruits or life in planet earth. The orange provides vitamin c which helps fight and prevents cell damage, therefore, keeping you safe and healthy from viruses as well as cancer, which is why an orange triggers in me the purest and a humble appetite for it. During my infancy and as of today, I love oranges since I grew up eating them in school as well as at home. My parents would always punish me when I didn't finish my fruits right after dinner since I never had a pleasant Pallet for fruits. But, the only fruit that satisfies my taste buds would be an orange. I never through away my oranges at school or home, but rather hide what was left of my orange in my pocket or backpack. Inclusively, I stole countless amounts of oranges from school for the purpose of making my hand squeezed orange juice. This why the orange is very special fruit to me, because I grew up with the orange and thinking about it takes me back through time.
When I see an orange, the first characteristic I notice is the simplicity of its color, Orange. It is also round with a very microscopic dotted

Orange can represent an energy or enthusiasm, which can bring about the willingness to embrace new ideas with enjoyment and a sense of exploration, as Sumita now attempts to “Americanize” herself with her jeans and orange tee shirt and later with her “cream-and-brown skirt set (color of earth, color of seeds)” (269). The new thoughts about being a working woman in America in her husband’s store are reflected in the earthy colors, which symbolize something new planted, as she is newly planted in America, trying to grow.

3. The colour orange appears many times in the novel "Life of Pi", as do the colours red and yellow, which together create orange. The colour red as an archetype symbolizes great passion, blood and sacrifice. The colour yellow symbolizes hope and happiness. Orange is a combination of these two archetypes. On page 153 in "Life of Pi", Pi remarks, "It seems orange---such a nice Hindu colour---is the colour of survival." Survival could be viewed as passion, sacrifice and hope all combined together.
One of the major themes of Osamu Dazai’s The Setting Sun is the socioeconomic fall of aristocracy in Japan following World War II. The title itself reflects these core themes: when the Japanese write down the name of their home country in Kanji (one of its three alphabets), it roughly means “land of the rising sun”. The Setting Sun is an allegory that the glory days of Japan have come to an end, specifically their ancient aristocracy and their old families, as well as Japanese culture. The comfortable bourgeoisie becomes the hard-working proletariat and the historical situation changes as the material circumstances changes. This social and economic change is both subtly and unsubtly shown through the main characters’ flashbacks and stories; Kazuko and her family come from a long line of aristocrats but now face the reality of living without power or status. Following three major events -- the death of Kazuko’s father, Kazuko’s divorce to her wealthy husband, and the nation-wide economic crisis caused by the war -- the family finds themselves out of money and out of luck, challenging the way they formerly viewed the world, themselves, and their class. Through their mother’s incompetence, Kazuko’s difficulty in working, and Naoji’s existential crises, Dazai deconstructs the classist ideals that claim the wealthy gained their status and capital because of hard work, strength, intelligence, and personal superiority while remaining sympathetic toward the upper classes.

After that, Daniel and Natasha find each other again and Daniel’s persistence ended up paying off because Natasha really liked him then. The theme that the author hints all throughout the book is When you are persistent, it can change the way others feel about you- in a bad or good way- but usually it will pay off in the end.
What if I told you something so simple and quotidian was actually complex and completely riveting. To most people orange is just an occurrence between the red and yellow spectrum. Maybe an orange is what you have in a bowl on your kitchen counter, patiently waiting to be picked as a snack. Orange is not so simple or mundane as many may believe. At a very young age I despised orange, the color as well as the fruit. The color reminded me of an unfavorable rusty wrench. The fruit itself was lumpy and bravely bold, exhibiting an unconfident standoff with my taste buds. This outlook is no longer true, yet now I truly believe orange is a beautiful color as well as a delicious fruit. Orange is unique, symbolic, and full of history.
