It can be difficult task for the everyday man to awake on Monday morning and remember what awareness week he has stumbled into.
Yesterday I was embarrassed to learn I had made no preparations for Rail Safety Week. A few hours later someone else hit me with Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Some research has indicated my sources were both inaccurate. Rail Safety Week coincided with Maori Language Week last week. Breast Cancer Awareness Month, likewise, is slated for October. An easy mistake to make, Charity Village informs me that we have now entered the UN sanctioned World Breast Feeding Week.
My trick for next year is to remember Breast Feeding Week coincides with Amnesty International’s Freedom Week (according to this morning’s Dom Post) which, of course, precedes Islam Awareness Week.
These are not ill-intentioned calendar events but, please charity and lobby groups, I am only one man. I love you all equally but I only have so many days in my Earth year.
