Relay for Life

Before last night, I'd never been to an American Cancer Society's Relay for Life event. WOW! That is quite a powerful experience. If you've never been to one, may I encourage you to find one in your neighborhood and just check it out (as a participant or just with a donation).

They lit luminaries to encircle the track and then everyone did a lap in remembrance of those who had succumbed to this horrific disease. It was at that moment I realized how blessed I was to be walking hand-in-hand with my wife (an eight-year cancer survivor) when it, honestly, could have been in honor of her.
