SALUTATIONS! So, the latest thing that is on my mind this month is Breast Cancer Awareness. This post and the ones that will follow will be theme related. To start off, I thought of writing a poem explaining what my feelings and thoughts were on breast cancer and how it impacts my life and those around me yadda yadda yah. As I was searching my brain for those words one of my favorite songs kept playing in my head. I tried to ignore it, telling myself "I neeed to focus, I need to focus". Once I found some focus, I listend to the words in the song that was playing in my head. BAM! it hit me "I should share this song", is what I thought and that's what I am going to do. That song is very appropriate for the month and hell the title alone says it all. That song, my fellow literary beinns was "Superwoman" by Alicia Keys. This song is for everyone that choses to be a super-human being and help to fight breast cancer and find a cure.....ENJOY!!

SUPERWOMAN by Alicia Keys

Everywhere I'm turning
Nothing seems complete
I stand up and I'm searching
For the better part of me

I hang my head from sorrow
State of humanity
I wear it on my shoulders
Gotta find the strength in me

'Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am, yes she is
Still when I'm a mess, I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes, I'm a Superwoman

This is for all the mothers fighting
For better days to come
And all my women
All my women sitting here trying
To come home before the sun

And all my sisters coming together
Say yes I will, yes I can

'Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am, yes she is
Still when I'm a mess, I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes, I'm a Superwoman

When I'm breaking down and I can't be found
As I start to get weak
'Cause no one knows me underneath these clothes
But I can fly, we can fly, oh

'Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am, yes she is
Even when I'm a mess, I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes, I'm a Superwoman, yes she is

Let me tell you, I am a Superwoman
Yes I am, yes she is
See, even when I'm a mess, I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes, I'm a Superwoman
Yes I am, said I'm a Superwoman, yes you are

Oh yeah, I'm tellin' you
I'm super, so super
I'm super, so super
Yes I am, yes we are
Yes I am, yes you are

Salutations. This post is one that has a theme driven by the time of year. No, I am not refering to the season, I am talking about the month of October; Breast Cancer Awareness Month. So every week, I fully intend on writing a post that is related to women and their families that have dealt with the effects of this disease. Breast Cancer affects million and their families. I come from a long history of women who have had complications with the disease and I, in my first twenty-five years of life, had to deal with scary screenings and uncertainites due to a mass I found. I thank God that it wasn't breast cancer :-) My point is this, I try to support the fight everyway I know how; consistent self screenings and visits with my doctor, reminding those around me to get screened, making sure that I find ways to donate to reasearch. Every little bit helps. So along with feeding my need for literature, I am going to use this time to fulfill a social responsibility. I can make sure that continue to be informative and caring. I SUPPORT THE FIGHT!!!! So I ask that if you never ever read anything else you, at least take time to think about the cause and what it could mean to you
