I'm on the home stretch. The finish line is in sight, the Mo is blooming (as much as a non-hairy person can bloom) and fundage is increasing steadily.
If there was any doubt at my commitment to this cause let me dispel it here.
There has been varied supported for Movember and I've had my fair share of discussions with those that are Pro-Mo and those that are Anti-Mo.
In the end I guess the reason for sponsorship is two fold.
a) You're sponsoring because you think it's a good cause and a friendly outlet is not a bad place to put the money.
b) You're sponsoring because you can see my commitment to said cause and that I am emotionally attached to the plight.
Whether you're a a) or b) or both you're still doing something good, whether it be directly for the fund or indirectly.
To those who can't see the logic to this or think that Movember is just a big hoo-ha and yet another "flavour of the month charity", bully to you. Don't be so self centered and really, narrow minded. Fair enough you can't give to every single charity on this earth but once in a while when a friend puts up their hand and makes some effort don't you think there is a little rhyme and reason to their emotional out pour?
I don't aspire to be the embodiment of the quintessential Mo standing on a soap box the size of the Eureka tower shouting my undying love for charity but I would like to be a guy with a little panache, commitment and responsibility to bringing a couple of extra bucks towards a good cause and hopefully do it with a little bit of originality (for fun) and meaning.
