The month of "PINK"

I've been reminded many times this week that October is Breast Cancer awareness month. I've seen an Oprah episode, seen some really cute pink t-shirts, donated $1 when I've eaten out, read some great blogs on personal struggles, and bought cookies with pink M&M's. But one of my favorites was when I was on the plane flying home and the Northwest flight attendants were selling pink lemonade to the passengers for $2 a glass. It was so cool to see how many people didn't really care for the lemonade but donated to the cause anyway, and so many of them giving more than the $2 minimum. It's nice to see that in this time of financial crisis that there are still those around with a big enough heart to donate to such an important cause.
