Think PINK!


Its been such a duration  this Blog has not been updated and yet hunger for posts to be shared. Due to duty calls and other reasons this blog was put for sudden paused, like insufficient slot of time for blogging. While away on the sickness, life seems badly taken. Time seems precious with so many things to think of and to do list suddenly piling up. What can be said when medication schedules stays compulsory to heal. In any condition, staying positive has give me path of living. With God's will and positive effort and thinking has made me a strong person and percieve life in a very beautiful angle and scenes. Anyway, the come back time is already here. This blog shall have more beautiful posts to be shared onwards. Hope it will make others to see things in a better way and from different angle of perception. And as the beginning of the comeback, something that I would very much like to share here is the awareness of the Pink Ribbon.

Why Pink Ribbon? What meaning does it carries? But...why PINK?


From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia search,

The pink ribbon is an international symbol of breast cancer awareness. Pink ribbons, and the color pink in general, identify the wearer or promoter with the breast cancer brand and express moral support for women with breast cancer. Pink ribbons are most commonly seen during National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The color pink is considered feminine in modern Western countries. It evokes traditional feminine gender roles, caring for other people, being beautiful, being good, and being cooperative. The pink ribbon represents fear of breast cancer, hope for the future, and the charitable goodness of people and businesses who publicly support the breast cancer movement. It is intended to evoke solidarity with women who currently have breast cancer. Breast cancer organizations use the pink ribbon to associate themselves with breast cancer, to promote breast cancer awareness, and to support fundraising.

A pink and blue ribbon is sometimes used to symbolize breast cancer in men, which is relatively rare. The pink and blue ribbon was designed in 1996 by Nancy Nick, President and Founder of the John W. Nick Foundation to bring awareness that "Men Get Breast Cancer Too!"

If talking about Pink or Blue Ribbon and cancer awareness, it has been all out published almost in media and channels in supporting various efforts in combating and preventing this desease. Most information can be read and acquire from the internet therefore I'm not writing up so much about it here.

All I can say is it's great to value life and see things beautifully.

It's just a a simple write up about Pink Ribbon which relates to Breast Cancer awareness in this blog of mine because it has been worldwide spoken as a general subject. Lately, I was filled up with so many news of those I've know within my surrounding being down with the symptoms of Cancer. And why the news & numbers of cases keep accelarating up daily around us. And that captures me to say something about it in my blog. Anyway, keep reading and more reading on the subject, hoping the awareness may keep us all away from such sickness.
