Wearing Purple for the LGBT

i decided to write this post due to current events .. Ok if your gonna sit here and judge u can leave the page now!  As i stated before i have many and i mean many friends who are lesbians, gay, and even bisexual.. i think that the fact that people are being bullied [ mostly teens] because of their sexual preference is a crock of shit. Life is already hard as is why add to someones daily stress? Noone has the right to make someone else feel insignificant in this world, or as if they dont matter due to their sexual preference. 
 I will be wearing Purple on Wednesday will you??


Recently, the news has been overflowing with information about the suicides of LGBTQQI youth. In light of these tragedies, the day of October 20, 2010 has been dedicated to standing up for those who thought it impossible to stand up for themselves. People, all around the world, are invited to wear purple. On the LGBTQQI flag, purple is the color of spirit. World, let's get together and make a change! WEAR PURPLE!

Lesbian
Gay
Bisexual
Transgendered
Questioning

Also, invite any and all friends you may have. Straight allies and gay allies, everyone can make a difference!
If you feel as if you have noone to  turn to, noone to talk to and feel your life just isnt worth living.. please contact me.. i will listen i will be a shoulder you can lean on!

I will wear purple, and fly my rainbow flag from the front of our house. (We just moved here, so this should give the Army wives on post something to talk about!)
