I learn this truth every time I try to buy my husband clothing. He simply likes different styles, colors, and patterns than I do.
If we are to make every thought count, then we must really embrace this idea of "lovely". I think that, in this one little adjective, the Lord shows us how unique He made each and every one of us.

Yellow: What is lovely?
"Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you."
