there is an event that the american cancer society puts on throughout the nation, called Relay For Life...the event itself can be held up for 24 hours...the concept behind it, being that cancer never sleeps so for those hours we join those in their fight...millions of people come together to remember, celebrate & fight back...i encourage you to find the relay in your area & become a part it...we all know someone who has been touched by cancer; and we all know it would be the greatest day ever, if no one had to hear those words, "i have cancer."...so join in the fight...
part of this event is the luminaria ceremony, bags with candles light up the track with names of those who have been touched by cancer, & then at dusk a ceremony is held in their honor...this ceremony among other reasons is my reason to relay...watch it, take it in, & then grab your walking shoes & join us...
