Friday, March 21st, is Ice Cream for Breakfast Day. What's Ice Cream for Breakfast Day, you ask? Let me tell you. A friend of mine, whom I've never met, died of Melanoma. It was crazy fast. But he wasn't going to let it stop him from enjoying life to the fullest. He was diagnosed four years ago, on March 21st (can it be four years already?). During his battle he decided he would create this Ice Cream for Breakfast Day to teach us all to enjoy life. Life is precious, life is short. Sometimes you should just eat ice cream for breakfast. The first ICFBD was set for the one year anniversary of his diagnoses. He died nine days before that. Now, as his family has picked up their pieces and moved on, we still remember him and his spirit on our Third Ice Cream for Breakfast Day. Bruce, I never knew you. But I think of you often. And I think of the mark you've left on this world. So, everyone out there, whether you knew Bruce or not, celebrate LIFE and how precious it is. Have some ice cream for breakfast with us. (You might want to practice through out the year, as well.)
