Lung Cancer Awareness
I have some very strong opinions about smoking. If you watched your mom waste away from cancer far too young and knew it could have been prevented, you'd have some strong opinions about it too. I don't buy that crap that everyone has to die of something. Don't put the people you love through that. If you smoke, please do whatever it takes to quit. If you can't do it for yourself, do it for the people you would be leaving behind.
My mom passed away on Valentine's Day 2005 from lung cancer. I can't even begin to describe the pain I constantly feel. I'm only just starting to feel like I have some kind of hope again. What else can I say...it seems that lately the best way to describe myself is to talk about who I am now that I have lost her...but I also know that her unconditional love for me has and always will shape me even more than my grief.

No matter what situation you are in right now, there is a purpose to that situation.

Solace
by Dorothy Parker
There was a rose that faded young;
I saw its shattered beauty hung
Upon a broken stem.
I heard them say, "What need to care
With roses budding everywhere?"
I did not answer them.
There was a bird brought down to die;
They said, "A hundred fill the sky-
What reason to be sad?"
There was a girl whose lover fled;
I did not wait the while they said,
"There's many another lad."
My pirate name is: Calico Jenny Flint
Often indecisive, you can't even choose a favorite color. You're apt to follow wherever the wind blows you, just like Calico Jack Rackham, your namesake. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!

Which are you? FANTASIA
You don't apologize for anything. And why would you? You've had to battle through too many tough times to worry about what other people think of you. That's why you don't mind attention: whether it's having the cutest outfit at the party or the biggest singing voice on Idol. You never forget what matters most to you, though, and that's your loved ones. If you feel like you're not getting the respect you deserve, you can - and will - stand up for yourself. Just remember to choose your battles and save your energy for the things you truly care about.
