Today we celebrate:
Sewing
Machine Day – Also celebrated on June 13th, this is
a day to use your sewing machine to make some new clothes for
yourself and your family. Elias Howe received a patent for his
sewing machine on this day in 1846.
Swap
Ideas Day – This is a day for an open idea exchange. Swap your
ideas with everyone you meet today, the only rule is that you must be
open minded and not get into a fight just because someone might
disagree with you or hold an idea that you find repugnant.
World
Suicide Prevention Day – This is a day to do whatever you can
to prevent suicides from happening. There are warning signs, find
out what they are and spread the information around. If more people
are able to recognize when someone might be headed down a suicidal
path, there is a greater chance of diverting them to a more positive
place.
To
celebrate today, grab your sewing machine, and head to a friend's
house to swap ideas while you sew. While you are there, check your
friend over very carefully for suicidal tendencies.
