Cancer seems to be so prevalent.<br /><br />I don't think anyone who took part in it on Facebook really sat down and thought deeply about "why" or "what" they were doing. Kinda like sheep I guess, just followed each other.<br /><br />I tend not to read too much on Facebook - but will watch for this kind of bizarrarity in future. Have to admit though, this had passed me by.<br /><br />I get irritated immensely by people wearing bangles and ribbons, which represent one charity or another, it all seems to be "competitive" charity concern.<br /><br />I give to certain charities, but I don't shout it to the heavens by wearing so called 'friendship bracelets and ribbons".<br /><br />That's all I have to say. <br /><br />JxMarvin -The Hollow Houndhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477654647518583194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4721833080371406655.post-10364771320877187192010-01-16T18:35:05.417+01:002010-01-16T18:35:05.417+01:00This had all passed me by on Facebook to be honest...This had all passed me by on Facebook to be honest, suffice to say, I will have to read a bit more about it before I comment any more. I tend to pop in and out of F.B., as you know I think it is TWOTD. Except I am have not flounced off it yet, (yet!!!!) this year so far.<br /><br />Although I cannot imagine posting about what underwear I am wearing to be honest even if it was for charity awareness or whatever it is called. <br /><br />Not keen generally on these Raising Awareness things, like you say, we are all pretty aware of Cancer - friends, relatives etc. <br /><br />My mind is numb from the handiwork I have been doing this arvo,I will have to give you more benefit of my "wisdom" tomorrow, when I can think out a more reasoned comment.<br /><br />JxMarvin -The Hollow Houndhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477654647518583194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4721833080371406655.post-6181768981862295512010-01-14T18:06:21.113+01:002010-01-14T18:06:21.113+01:00Very clear indeed.
