We need a public symbol honoring the horrible lonely death of our family and friends.

An arm band, a ribbon on the car, a symbol in our windows? They all died by themselves as if Satan himself made up the rules. They deserve to be honored for the love they gave. I know three.

Green is obviously the color of nature and health, thus it also has close ties with emotions of empathy, kindness, and compassion. Paler, softer mint greens often promote ideas of youth, inexperience, and innocence, while deeper, darker greens draw out notions of success, wealth, and money.

They also have green bulbs so you could light up the outside of your home.

Shouldn’t be a dark green but one that is more vibrant.

I’d wear a green armband, maybe with the universal Ribbon symbol as this is worldwide of different faiths, but green should be the color.
