And this Challenge is dedicated to those girls who have lived with, been challenged by, beaten the odds and braved up to the daily onset of Cancer...and I add to their families and friends...who are never ever separated far from this reality.
Ike has yearly made a Challenge on www.ikesworldchallengeblog.blogspot.ca (here) dedicated to GIRLS - I love this. This year being no different.
And we have options.
To honor girls in every way, which I have chosen to, including the strength that stands right beside this word and this day and this often way to long unending or painful transition called Cancer.
Being a Hospital Minister/Chaplain, I have never shied away from the Word, finding it does not do justice to a person, be it a man or woman and in general a pet...unless the individual asked me to.
If I seem brazen, thoughtless, insensitive - which I definitely do not consider myself to be - I hope I have provided the context for that...it is my daily familiarity, my walking this path for 30 years with various individuals from infancy to the most elderly - and their families.
I have been blessed to not walk this path personally - so I know not of what I talk from the personal perspective - only many of you know that.
Bless you a thousand times over.
You are brave.
You are my hero.
Many will hate to be that.
Many will know they are that.
MY TWO VIDEOS FOR GIRL POWER
please click on the http:// links below
If you have the time, I'd love if you would take a look
at the MOVIE I made for Girl Power.
It is as important to me on this topic of Girl Power as the art above.
Because we ARE strong...all in different ways.
The Pic below a piece of the art.
I could not load my VIDEO here...but the link will take you there.
I hope you will view it.
Thanks so much.

If you have the time, I'd love if you would take a look
at another MOVIE (a couple minutes only) I made for Girl Power.
This will speak to some, but not all.
If the message isn't for you...Lady Gaga "Born This Way" is a good upper for the day!

You have created a super magical design with a perfect sentiment. I love it. Your Ninga's are fabulous and so wonderfully coloured. Great job nice work.
