My shiny, happy, pink day

I have thought a lot about the whole idea that Breast Cancer walks undermine the concept that this is a deadly disease. And I am not dismissing it.

However, for thousands of years people have dressed up in costumes, participated in ritual, and celebrated being alive. Kind of like mummers?

So here is my pink postergirl photo from my local Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk.

  1. You look great!

    I always have mixed feelings about walks for breast cancer, but you raise a good point here: and that is the need for ritual. Also, these types of events bring a sense of community to the participants.
