i just found out today that someone i love very much is even sicker than we thought.

and it reminded me why i’m still doing this little blog thing and why i’m aiming to make it bigger and better.

because as i’ve said before, every time we make something we are activists.

after i finish my holiday craftivism gifts, i’m planning on making some hats for cancer patients as a way to show my support of people’s struggles. not because it makes me feel like a better person, but because giving back to others and/or the community makes me feel more whole.

because we’ve all lost someone we care about.

and instead of choosing to sit quietly and do nothing this time, i’m going to help them fight it. even if it’s in a small tiny way such as making hats, i refuse to sit still and be silent.
