Question vim color


When I see vim some letters are dark blue on the background of black; i.e., I can hardly read. How can I change the color to water or brown or something else?

This question piqued my curiosity.

Thank you for suggestion.
Though I tried, not succeeded any. I think I'd try later.
Thank you anyway.
