The 3 day Walk

This weekend was the 3 day breast cancer walk. I didnt participate this year, but my two cousins walked for my aunt who died a few years ago. Today my mom and I were on our way to church, and we noticed that the route they walked cut across our neighborhood. So my mom called my cousin to see where they were, but we had missed them by about an hour. So we drove to the next checkpoint and waited for them. Seeing all those people walking for a common cause was really inspiring to me. And after seeing something on that large a scale, you kinda take a step back and look at things a little differently. While waiting we saw a lot of people that had come out to support their family members that were walking, and it seemed to really help them out and give them that extra step to continue on. So finally we met up with my cousins, and they told us a little bit about the weekend. They were all bandaged up and out of breath, but after we talked with them and told them we were proud of them they caught a second wind and were really excited to finish up their journey. This year was the first year they participated, and they wanted to get a group together to go next year. So my mom and I said we would join them and get a lot of our other family members to go and walk too.
