I don’t have aids, nor do I personally even know anyone who does. (I am a big rent fan though, of which aids was mentioned quite a bit).

I would just like to ask that everyone take a few moments today to offer up a prayer to all of those who’ve been hurt by this disease. Also don’t judge those who have the disease as evil, many people still associate the disease with immoral acts, but aids is as often transferred by mother to child, or unfaithful spouse to spouse, or through rape, and a plethora of other ways as it is through immoral activity of the victim.

Take a moment today to watch the movie Rent, or just think about the disease, and maybe even think of a way you can help, whether it’s via volunteering, donating money, etc.

Just my two cents on World Aids Day. Not really a holiday to celebrate - yet(maybe someday), but one to be ponderous of, and to take a moment to remember those who’ve died from it, and to say a prayer of thanksgiving that you don’t have it.

I also hope everyone had a wonderful weekend - Thanksgiving was yummy. Lots and lots of turkey, mmm…. I could go it again.

Blackfriday was a nightmare as always, and I’m looking forward to Cyber-Monday.
