Inspired by Diabetes. The Creative Expression Competition
Diabetes is a disease that affects millions of people in the world. Both sets of my grandparents and my mother have Diabetes, so I am happy to help promote anything related to helping bring more awareness to this disease.
Inspired by Diabetes is a global initiative that brings families and people with Diabetes together to raise awareness of the global burden of Diabetes —
and draw particular attention to people who do not have the resources
they need to fight diabetes. Inspired by Diabetes is currently holding a Creative Expression Competition where children and adults who have Diabetes or whose lives have been affected by the disease can submit a creative piece which illustrates the inspiring journey Diabetes has taken them.
The art submision can be an essay, poem, photograph, drawing, painting, or piece of music. Entry deadline is January 31, 2008. There are more details on how to enter the competition at "How to enter the Creative Expression Competition."
I think art as a form of expression is something that absolutely helps the healing process enormously. It is also a fantastic way to communicate the feelings and emotions that sometimes verbal communication cannot explain. Art touches the heart and soul, and being a part of something like the Creative Expression Competition is a wonderful thing. To learn more, please check out "Inspired by Diabetes."
