There was nothing special about today as far as my health goes but today is Unity Day, a day to wear orange as a symbol of being unified against bullying as part of National Bullying Prevention Month. October is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month. With only twelve months, causes have to share, I guess. As I’ve discussed in my blog, I’ve been affected by both bullying and breast cancer in my life. And bullying prevention has been a professional focus.
Here I am wearing orange, 70’s psychedelic orange to be exact. Striving for a world where orange and pink can live in harmony.
Orange makes me happy when it is on my clothing instead of my hair or skin. Remember that, Oompa Loompas!
My Eyes Are Up Here 
Your photo stimulated a conversation with Haley…she said “What is that picture?” So I told her why you were wearing those colors…She then showed me her orange ribbon pinned onto her backpack …looks like a breast cancer awareness shape only orange! I never would have found out they were talking about this in school…Our family has been subjected to bullying as well so am glad it is being addressed! You look AWESOME!!
That’s really cool. I had never heard of Unity Day until a few days ago when I was invited by a friend via Facebook, to wear orange. Thanks for the compliment, too.
You look great! I just realized I have nothing orange in my wardrobe… I’ll be better prepared for Unity Day next year.
Thanks!
You look groovy!
Thanks, that the look I was going for!
