Their new theme is Believe in Yourself -

centering around the Breast Cancer Awareness month and pink theme,

which will be running until November 3rd.

Good luck!

I found this interesting statistics through an article from healthy.net

In a study of 578 women, researchers at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London found that, after five years, 395 of the women were alive and well without relapse, while 50 were alive with relapse and 133 had died. A significantly increased risk of relapse or death occurred in those women whose psychological profiles revealed a high rate of helplessness, hopelessness and depression, while those who felt hopeful and empowered tended to have the best prognosis.

Through this research, they have found that having a 'fighting spirit'

- had a much higher chance of survival.

... and

I also found a perfect inspirational quote, and thought that I'd share.

"Believe it can be done.

When you believe something can be done,

REALLY BELIEVE,

your mind will find the ways to do it.

Believing a solution paves the way to solution."

- David Joseph Schwartz

Thank you for taking your time to be a part of this special hop -

and hope that EVERY one of you is reminded that having courage, strength and confidence

makes a huge difference in your lives.

Have a beautiful weekend.
