::power in pink::

I believe in pink.
I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner.
I believe in kissing, kissing a lot.
I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong.
I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls.
I believe that tomorrow is another day and
I believe in miracles.
-Audrey Hepburn


I believe Ms. Hepburn knew exactly what she was talking about! Such a powerful quote and so much more than just loving the color pink. What if we all believed in these things or instilled these things in our children for the future...I believe things would change for the better. 


Maybe we should all believe in a little pink...

[join the fight]

Brace yourself...it's that time of year where everything starts to turn pink! (obviously I don't mind one bit!!) Before you roll your eyes, know that it is for a VERY good cause! Breast cancer awareness is so important in today's day in age. Did you know that ONE woman is diagnosed with breast cancer every THREE minutes in the US? An even scarier statistic is that ONE woman will die because of it every THIRTEEN minutes in the US. The good news is that the survival rate has increased drastically since 1960, but the bad news is, there still is no cure.

However there is hope! With early detection and heightened awareness (thanks to organizations like Susan G. Komen for the Cure) lives are being saved every day. Everyone can help make a difference. Whether you run in the race, donate money, buy pink products, or simply spread the word, every single person reached is one more possibility. I hope that you will share this and the pictures with everyone you know.

.all.many.few.one.none.

This quote means more than just words that Ben Franklin wrote or said... If you truly read and take in the meaning, you get the message he was sending. Take it phrase by phrase and apply it to your life.


:Be civil to all: Do not treat people with meanness, do not be rude, just be kind. We are all human beings going through our own battles. Every single person deserves to be treated with respect, both to their face and when they are not around. Be civil through and through and you will go further in life. Mean words and being disrespectful will get you no-where in life and leave you alone in the end...and who wants to be stuck in a life like that? For when you truly need someone, they will always remember how you made them feel and decide not to be there for you. 


:Be sociable to many: Learn from people as much as possible. Explore all different walks of life, that is why we are all individuals. If we were all alike, life would be boring and we would never learn anything. Talk with everyone. You might learn so much more than if you just shut the world out or keep a closed mind.


:Familiar with few: Although being sociable is a must, that doesn't mean every single person you meet is your friend or that you have to tell your life story to everyone who crosses your path. Save your secrets. Tell only those closest to you. While it is a good thing to talk with everyone and give them a chance, you shouldn't let too many people in on all that is you and what makes you who you are. Save it for those willing to listen and those who genuinely care for you. There is a difference in being friendly and a difference in babbling on like your the only person on the planet!  


:Friend to one: Sure at some point in your life you will think "I have so many friends", but the cold truth is you don't. You can try, try, try and if you look back, you really will only have one. That one person who is there for you through everything. The friend who doesn't tell you one thing and tell 10 other people another. A friend loves you for who you are. They do not look for your faults and spread them all over the place. They have time for you. Never excuses. And they try just as hard if not harder to be your friend. The words they speak are the words that deserve to spoken about you and to you. They do not make things up to satisfy themselves or others. They only have your best interest at heart, for you have theirs at yours. So is it saying you can't have more than one friend? No, but be a true friend to that friend. Don't be a friend to their face and trash them to the next. That’s not being a friend to anyone or being true to yourself.. 


:Enemy to none: Enough said. Do not do things in your life that will make people not care for you. Be nice. No matter what, just be you. If people do not like it, they do not belong in your life. If they talk bad about you, let them, and do not talk about them in turn. In fact, do not waste your time on them and they will just go away. Do not hang onto them because then you will just become enemies, which causes all involved to lose. We make life, love, and friendships so much more complicated then it really is. Just be you. No matter what life gives you. Keep your head and spirits up. Even during the most difficult times...it will work itself out. It always does. Remember that the hard times can't last forever...just be patient and remember that we all have our problems...different solutions...and our own ways of looking at things.
