SPIRIT DAY 10/20/10
A movement has started via Facebook and other sites to wear Purple on this date to honor the recent deaths by suicide of some of our gay youth.

Thank you Jess....
It is hard to know what to do to help. At least by wearing purple on this day and walking through the mall.....well, you never know, it will at least show support. It could be the door that is slightly opened and would help someone in trouble walk up and greet them with a smile and give you an opportunity to take their hand... http://dl6.glitter-graphics.net/pub/...ivqahiy3c6.jpg |
I'll have to make a lil run to the mall tomorrow cuz I don't think I own anything purple. It will be well worth it!
|
I have been wearing the It Gets Better purple logo on Facebook for about two weeks and have included the info and tel # for the Trevor Project under the avatar. I hope it reaches someone! I too am very saddened by all the youth in our community taking such drastic measures!
|
BUMP
Just a reminder.... Thanks for viewing and supporting!

I'm wearing purple, my shoes are kinda purple, my facebook profile pic is a purple ribbon and candle, and I even found a purple collar for one of my dogs!
Remembering those who took their own lives, supporting those who are struggling, living an open life, educating when I can. Sue :floatbee: is a purple :floatbee:! |
i have a purple bow in my hair and purple beads (also purple panties but that's more of a coincidence). i also placed a supply of pins and ribbons in the break room here for my cowrokers who forgot. |
For some bizzarre reason, I own no purple clothes.
I am here in spirit though! |
|
Purple purple........shirt and socks and ribbon in my hair. Gonna at least try to walk around the mall this afternoon. Something...anything. Can't be seen sitting here at home.....need to get out there a little today.

Not only do I have my purple on, but three of my employees do too! I really love these folks! Makes my heart glad.

When you told me that they wore their purple it made me realize just what a great group of folks you work with and that you ( even on the days when your mantra is "don't kill my production supervisor" ) are in the right place. It made my day to hear that! Hell, it made my month! Love you and big hugs to your office folks! ( although, I bet Miss Cassandra could have found a hot purple jump suit had ya mentioned it! :sunglass::blink::gimmehug: ) :byebye: |
I'm wearing my purple shirt in solidarity! And how sad that we must have a day ~ ONE day ~ pay tribute to these guys. I hope this lights a few fires in our schools to put an active policy in place to deter bullies.

Yes, our youth will straighten out this mess! I have hope as they hit the voting age. My ooldest Granddaughter hits 18 in July and has been raised in a small town. Talk to most kids about same-sex marriage bisexuality, being queer, etc. They look at people and say...SO? Gotta love 'em! Honestly, I wish there were a hell of a lot more of us parenting!!
