Let's Choose....Purple...

. Anyone who reads our Blog at all knows that I LOVE the color purple...had not thought so much what really made up purple....until this midterm election....it is of course, RED and Blue which are also great colors. The colors have come to make statements...to say WHO you are because of support for what may be just one candidate or favoring the position on a particular issue.

    purpleRegardless of how strongly you believe in any one thing... person... position...what we believe most people can agree on is that is past time to work together for the common good...to look beyond colors and find common ground.

  It isn't unlike negotiating real estate sales...you agree on what you can agree on....and compromise on what you cannot. We all know what happens to transactions that have people who choose the "My way or the Highway" position...the highway is a lonely place to walk.

      Every change starts somewhere...a person at a time...a willing mind and open heart...for the good of everyone...Join us today in closing the width of space in the aisle...uniting minds...thinking before talking... acting with thought...working toward a common goal. Be Purple.

          Amen and Women.

         This has been a peaceful thought post brought to you by Sally K. & David L. Hanson, Broker Associates with EXP Realty honored to be serving the red, blue and purple of southeastern Wisconsin.

Hi Sally and David... I'll be the first to admit to missing civility and courtesy in our current culture.

I wish that purple was a color we could have gone with in this election, I don't like the choices of red and blue that we had, haha.

"Be purple" - I just love that and the analogy!  I am going to have to tell my clients to "be purple" when they get in that rigid all-or-nothing attitude.

Sally and David- love your analogy and yes my favorite color is made up of red and blue. It's time for each and every one of us to act like adults and call upon ourselves to bring about civility. Saying it begins with Trump is like a child on a playground who says it's his fault!  Everyone owns a piece of this animus, and each and every one of us can be a part of making us a great society again.

Wish I had seen this too before I posted on FB too, Sally...we do think alike and bridging the divide has to happen if this country is to move forward well.  Yeah, PURPLE!

My mom's favorite color was purple and think of her whenever I see it. Love the analogy and how it applies in many walks of life.

You know, purple is regal - perhaps we should go with a Monarchy! We'll name you Queen - it would be unanimous, Sally!!

I love red & blue but, not during elections or when politics is discussed - I prefer a color right in the middle...PURPLE!

I just came over this morning from a reblog - this is an interesting idea. I am neither red nor blue, so like the idea that I might just be a purple person!
