October

… is a very important month for every one. It is the Breast Cancer Awareness month. It’s a constant reminder of the struggles that my mom had to go through losing her mom to this disease at a very young age. I’ve never had a chance to know and love my grandmother. It pains me. It pains my family. This is a disease that is plaguing for a long time. And yet there are many out there ignoring the basic care needed, in order to prevent or detect.

Annually, international health campaign organized by major breast cancer charities every October to increase awareness of the disease and to raise funds for research into its cause, prevention and cure… by Wikipedia.

With many organizations, media outlets & blogger’s spreading the awareness, are you:

a) encouraged to do everything possible to prevent or detect breast cancer?

b) aware of your responsibility to encourage one another?

c) doing what is needed to prevent or detect, correctly?

There are several ways to subdue this disease. Educate yourself is the first stage. With correct information, discussion with your doctor and regular self-examination, we can confidently lower the risk of breast cancer.

Supporting existing and active charities is also important to further encourage research for cure and treatment of breast cancer.

If you are a blogger, please take some time to go pink, spread the breast cancer awareness, and share your personal experiences. Spread the ribbon of hope and wear it proudly.

Last but not least, LOOT would donate USD 5.00 on each purchase made in the month of October to honor and contribute towards BREAST CANCER AWARENESS. Encourage each other to contribute for cancer treatment and research. Charity details would be shared soon.

Prevention, is always better than cure…

Tag with letters K, S and 4's

Tags long over due! Sulz assigned me with letter “K”, meanwhile Vishesh added his share by assigning me with letter “S”. Who am I to complain, right? 😉

Rules that are meant to be broken as follows:

You leave a comment on this post, and I’ll assign you a letter. You write about ten things you love that begin with your assigned letter, and post it at your place. When people comment on your list, you give them a letter, and the chain continues on and on.

Note: You can leave a comment and not be assigned a letter if you want. Just let me know if you want a letter to keep this going.

Ten things I love that begins with the letter “K”

1. Knowledge : Behold! I can’t survive without knowledge. Reading is my hobby. This is also true that I am barely surviving in my MBA right now 😀

2. Karma : Warning! Don’t turn your back on this one. Running away from Karma is impossible. Try it.

3. Kismet : Destiny, faith; who am I to argue? I love my faith, I am destined to be with the ones I love. Thank you GOD 🙂

Ten things I love that begins with the letter “S”

1. Sunshine and Sunset : I love nature’s beauty. It is free, after all.

2. Smile : You are on C h a t t e r SMILE B o x. Good jaw exercise, try it!

3. Sunflower : One of my favorite flowers. Planning to grow them during summer’s in 2009.

4. Saffron : is the priciest spice. I love it, in moderate measurements for sure.

5. Sari : Ah, the symbol of sultry, poise and elegance 🙂

6. Spices : Bet we can’t live without it. Go and hide, some how it haunts us. That’s our spice!

7. Success : What’s not to love it?

8. Sweet : tooth that’s me. I am a gamer, anything and everything labeled “desserts”!
