#IceBucketChallenge

Okay! I’m sorry but those so worried about conserving water.

1. There’s something called water cycle. So that water will soon become rain water.
2.Its for charity. No one saving that one bucket of water is going to be sending that water to Africa. More water get wasted in water parks, pools, while brushing, by spilling etc.
3. It’s a fad, a phase, a gimmick. This too shall end.
4. Yes, donating money Is better but most of those doing it are donating as well.
5. Bollywood Maybe aping Hollywood but again, most celebrities these days are associated some cause or other, whether anonymously or officially.
6. The rules state those who do the challenge can donate lesser than $100 and those who don’t have to donate $100. And many, specially celebrities are donating thousands $ even after doing the challenge to raise awareness.
7.Everyone wants to get in on the fun, get their 15 mins of fame while the rage is on. Be a part of something bigger than themselves with One bucket of water. Some actual good is happening as well. Appreciate That basic human sentiment.
8. The $30+ million collected is probably the highest collection ALS will ever make.
9. With pharmaceutical companies not researching less profitable diseases you should be more concerned about the next viral/bacterial outbreak or disease that may have no cure.
10. If you don’t agree, at least donate …. something, anything anywhere !!

About Aditi Wardhan Singh

I'm a mom living in Virginia, enjoying chronicling my various escapes with the kids and around the kitchen. I believe being a mom involves a balance of holding on and letting go. And since being a mom is a 24/7 job, cooking though essential, needs to be as easy as can be. So peruse my blog for various experiences in parenting and experiments in cooking.
