Different Colors, Different Theories!
Why the different colors used for different suits? When imagining a prisoner, you might think of them wearing an orange jumpsuit. This is true, but it wasn't always like this originally. Options in the U.S were wearing uniforms with black and white stripes. In the early 20th century, things started to change and switching these colors to something else was supposed to cut off the association with gangs. Orange jumpsuits appeared in the 70s- when inmates started being transported outside more often. They're also used when an inmate wants to make themselves more visible to guards or other inmates- they can't blend in as easily when wearing striking orange.

Why Meditate?
In recent years, meditation has grown in popularity, and for good cause. According to research, daily meditation can improve mental health by easing the symptoms of stress, despair, and anxiety.

That One Friend
I saw her sitting on the other side of the classroom on the first day of college, lost in thought, and immediately felt drawn to her. She had a quiet confidence about her that was both intriguing and comforting. I wanted to talk to her, to get to know her better, but I didn't know how to approach her. At first, I thought that she might be a rude person and would not want to be my friend so I didn't even try to talk to her.
