PINK

Today I’m wearing PINK to help raise awareness for cancer. It’s a day that brings back lots of emotion. Ask anyone if they know someone who has had cancer or has died from cancer and they’ll share a painful story with you.

My mom was promoted to heaven after a battle with cancer. My grandmother has had breast cancer twice and beat it twice.

So today I wear PINK. I’ve never wore pink before and to be honest I felt a little awkward at first. I am supportive of cancer research and making people aware of the need for funding but just haven’t gone PINK.

To tell you the truth, I’m really liking my PINK shirt.

I guess you could say I’m going PINK for what I’m passionate about.

Today’s Walk-Away: What are you so passionate about that you need to make others aware of it? Take some time today and think/pray about what need in your life you need to go PINK for then do it. It may feel awkward at first but your passion should outweigh your pride – right?
