I’ve got myself a new theme, and after tweaking it for a couple of days, I’ve finally decided that this should be it for the time being. I’d still like to have the “Recent Comments” column in my footer instead of the “Blogroll” column, but I have not a single idea how to do that. So I guess I shall leave it as it is, until I’ve found someone who’s willing to help me with that *smiles*

Anyway, how do you like this new theme? It’s a little too late to ask, isn’t it, since I’ve already mentioned how I liked it, and will most probably stick with this for long :)

And I’ve just found out that the theme designer, Brian Gardner, is on a mission to walk for breast cancer. In his own words:

On August 10th of this year, I will once again lace up my shoes for the Chicago Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk, and start an emotional journey that will take me 60 very long and grueling miles from Vernon Hills to downtown Chicago. This walk will be hot, this walk will be painful. There will be sweat, and there will be tears.

Now, some shocking statistics about breast cancer:

• By the time that you finish reading this, two more women will be diagnosed with breast cancer, and another one just died from it.
• In fact, while I am walking those 60 miles, 110 women will die from this horrible disease.
• 110 families will lose a mother, or a daughter, or a best friend.

Check out Brian’s other WordPress themes and if you liked what you see, consider making a small donation (to donate via PayPal, you will need Brian’s email) so that he can participate in the Chicago Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk, please? To participate in the event, he is required to raise a minimum of $2,200.

I don’t walk to get recognition. I don’t walk because I want people to think of me a hero. I walk so that a little girl can grow up and spend time with her mother. I walk so that a mother can watch her daughter walk down the aisle at her wedding. I walk so that I don’t have to console another friend while a part of her life was taken too soon. I walk because I am physically able to, while others are not. I walk because I have been given so much, and I want to give back as much as I can.
