On this historic day, I’m not wearing any red. Or white. Or blue.

Don’t get me wrong– I still pledge allegiance to the Flag, and to the Republic for which it stands.

I’m just hoping that my kids and grandkids think it’s weird that today is such a big deal. I hope that today is the day we can finally look past what seems to make us different, and look at what brings us together. I hope that today we can stop being a near-sighted nation and look ahead to a better future.

I Hope. So, today, I’m not wearing red, white, or blue. I’m wearing all three.

Today, I’m wearing purple.
