pin a Red Ribbon!

"...tie a yellow ribbon around the old oak tree.."

this "Yellow ribbon" song was sung in early 70s or so, in support of jail birds ( i believe i am being such a prejudice against them by linking them with such a term! ts tsk..so bad of me) or rather in a more humane term would be to refer these people as whom had one reason or another ended up having stayed in prison for a period of time.

how about the baby Pinki ribbon? those are to represent the brave women who had won the battle against Breast Cancer! to women, breasts are vital part of their body. because two humps protruding out of their bodies are not just for physical health purposes but also representing their womenhood. without them, one can't help but feel less of a "female". however due to circumstances, which i believe is in most cases, the breasts have to cut off to prevent any cancerous cell from spreading to other organs of the body. women have to fight agasint this ugly illness and also to term up with the fact that what they pride to have had been lost forever.

as for the RED Ribbon, the burmese especially in singapore are wearing them to show their support for those who dare to walk against, for those chaffrom robes, against the brutal, violent and over-possesive-for-power Theives in yangon! Subsquently, it is also to show that our hearts will beat as ONE no matter how far away we might be from our needy motherland!Cheers to those who dare to walk ..

wonder if u are wearing the red ribbon today ?!
