#SelfieSaturday


Because this is how I look when I take a selfie, I thought I would use #SelfieSaturday as a chance to let you in on some tidbits about me and ask about tidbits of you! A twist on selfies!

My selfie today is all about my favorite color. PURPLE.

I have loved purple for many years. Especially the deeper purples. I love the color for its immediate symbolism of royalty. Not because I fancy myself royal but I am a bit of a royal. I am, after all, a daughter of the King.

Years ago I was reading a list of "get to know you" questions and one of them was the ever popular, "What's your favorite color" but it then added a second question, "Why." And I liked that. I like knowing the why of something, I'm never quite satisfied with an answer that has no foundation.

I also like the psychology behind color. There's multiple websites dedicated to explaining the science, symbolism, and psychology behind colors - here's one of the many about purple. Whatever your favorite color is you can get all the info you wanted, and more, at the same site. *wink*

Purple calms me, puts me at ease, makes me stop to take a deep breathe. I've painted the hub and I's bedroom in purple, my favorite body pillow is deep purple, my favorite blankey (yes that's what I call it) from a bestie is a swirl of purples and other colors, and I tend to eye purple colored anything. There's probably sites dedicated to every color in the rainbow but I love to troll through The Purple Store online. Every single thing they sell is purple! It's fantastic and fills my craving for purple when I need a visual fix.



So, what's your favorite color and why?

One Day Without Shoes Day Today is to raise global awareness for children’s health and education.  Why shoes? Because shoes help protect from bacteria in the dirt, rusty nails, dirty needles and shoes enable feet to withstand the long distances most children in developing countries need to walk to get to school. Join TOMS One for One There is plenty of criticism out there for TOMS and its short term solutions. Critics don't even buy the "at least they are doing something" statement.  However, you have to start somewhere. And every bit of awareness helps something go from short term to long term.  We all have a part to play.
