Friday December 1st 2006
Today is world AIDS day. 5500 lives are lost daily in Africa to AIDS - on world basis around 40 million people live with HIV. And so far there is nothing we can do to stop it - unless we take action. Wearing the red ribbon is one of the actions we can take. On December 1st we can also wear the 'virtual ribbon' to try and spread awareness. Here is mine:
Go to the official site and see how you can help. One day we might be able to live without the fear of HIV and AIDS. Lets try and push that day forward.
December 1st isn't just about how Christmas is knocking on the door. It's also a day for remembering how priviledged some of us are and for discovering what we can do for the ones less fortunate. Afterall it is a time for sharing and caring.
