The choice to make a decision

How can people decide on like one specific thing, e.g. a favorite colour or animal. I do have a fav colour and animal... or so I think but why do we even have something like this? What is the goal we want to achieve putting everything into certain categories, we get to know about through our senses?

I am not really sure if I have got an favorite animal or colour because everything has got something special. It depends from which perspective you perceive things and in which situation you are in. Just like there are different songs in one music genre you can like or dislike, each colour e.g. has got different shades and makes those shades unique and beautiful. Just to say "I like green the most" would be a lie in my eyes, because this is not specific enough; I personally like emerald green but I do not really like grass green. As for animals, I probably like all I am not afraid of. Mostly animals which are cute or majestic. I like hedgehogs, because they look like walking balls. I like elephants, because they look like they are always smiling. I like koi fish, because they look like being always hungry like me or lions, because they are my starsign and they look like they achieved their dreams.

So in the end, I say that I have a favorite thing but I don't really have one.

Same with seasons. Depending of the situation I am in, e.g. I feel warm, I feel like I prefere winter the most. When I am freezing, I wish it would be summer. Talking about spring and autumn, I like the different colours both seasons provide. What I like most about spring are the "new beginnings of life" and the flowers and its smell. Autumn on the other hand presents me different shades of red, orange and yellow and cute animals like squirrels or hedgehogs.

To come to an end, I just wanna say that we should not take everything for granted and should perceive our environment more in detail, in order to really find out what we like or dislike.
