IF YOU WANT TO LAUGH...it's ok! IT'S OK! How often do you hear this message when it relates to Breast Cancer? Not too often. I don't know about you, but I hear "If you want to cry, it's OK" or "If you want someone to talk to, call me." I have a friend whose cancer, as she would say in her own words, is as stubborn as a beast. She is tired of being met by sadness, by people who expect her to be depressed or angry or, or, or. Wendy just wants to be asked "to go out on the town," even though the answer would perhaps be no. She just wants to be asked to "go have a laugh." She told me that, to her, it seems like everyone around her has cancer and is depressed and sad and that she is being "just like Wendy." I don't underestimate the many, many differing moods in between the ones I describe above, having walked alongside many women and men in my past profession as Chaplain. However today, it just felt right to bring out the message of the rightness and place for laughter, joy, and mostly the blessing that many people experience on the face of tragedy. Today's card is dedicated to the women, woman and men that walk the walk with breast cancer and want to still have good, whole-hearted belly laughs!!! SQUISHY HUGS. Samara
