Purple = Spirit
“That’s the spirit!” Many of us (if not all of us) have heard this phrase. It’s said at sporting events when a participant can barely go on, but they somehow continue until the end of the event.
Purple represents spirit in the pride flag.
To be honest, it took me a while to figure out what to write for spirit.
It isn’t about spirituality, but about spirit. To tell others “That’s the spirit” when they may be at a down time, a time of sadness, but they continue to go on.
They push forward with determination and courage because they have others cheering for them.
Everyone wants that, especially when it’s hard.
The LGBTQIA+ community has spirit. They cheer others on and they need others to cheer for them.
Let’s all go out there and show our spirit.
“That’s the spirit!”
“That’s our team!”
