Andrea Libman and "My Ride to Conquer Cancer" · 5:24am Aug 21st, 2012
In recent months, I've intentionally stayed away from the fan fiction scene to focus on more important things in life. However, after watching last weekend's Everfree Northwest event, I feel the need to step in for a moment and express my desire to see Andrea Libman's "My Ride to Conquer Cancer" fundraiser endeavor become a success.
"It's true some days are dark and lonely," Pinkie Pie sings in "A Friend in Deed." Even this colorful, pink pony knows that life has its share of problems, and some of them can't be avoided. However, she also knows those problems can be challenged and perhaps even overcome when friends work together with a "smile, smile, smile."
We have an opportunity here to demonstrate that concepts like laughter, kindness, and generosity are more than just lofty ideals stemming from a children's television program. Let's put those ideas into action, and perhaps by doing so we can make Ms. Libman "smile as wide as a mile."
Thanks for listening.
