December!

1 12 2008

I’m excited, now that it’s December.  Bring on the Christmas season, and let the countdown begin!

December 1st is not only the first day of the last month of the year – it also marks World AIDS day.  And this year is the 20th anniversary of the event.

Yes, there are certain stereotypes and stigmas about AIDS.  But I have seen first-hand the effects of this terrible disease on people.  I have seen the orphaned children in Africa whose lives have been forever changed because of it.  And this is something that isn’t just happening in Africa – it is a worldwide problem.  I believe science will one day find a cure.  Today, let us remember those who are affected by this malady and say a prayer for that cure to come soon.
