National Pink Day
Pink was first used as a color name in the late 17th century, pink is a pale red color which got its name from a flower of same name.
- Pink Flowers – The color pink is mostly associated with flowers and often attracts insects.
- In the pink – To be in top form, in good health, in good condition.
- Pink slip – To be given a pink slip means to be fired or dismissed from a job. First recorded in 1915 in the United States.
- Pink-collar worker – Persons working in jobs conventionally regarded as “women’s work.”
- Pink Ribbon – There are many places that use the Pink Ribbon such as Breast Cancer and International Stand Up to Bullying Day.
- Tickled pink – means extremely pleased.
Pink is usually thought of as a girl color, but men can wear it and wear it well. There is a saying, “Real Men Where Pink!”.
So maybe take this day and wear pink! Just for the fun of it!
I really couldn’t find much about this day like who created and when and why. All I could find is that is is a day to celebrate the color Pink. So I figured I would share some blog post on Courageous Christian Father that talk about the color Pink. The big one is the blog post below. All Things Pink. I mention where in the Bible the color Pink may or may not be found.
