Like I said, late Sunday night, right?
Anyway. Relay for Life was a great experience. I have to admit, I cried during the Luminaria walk, despite my aversion to public crying. It was rough, you know? So many people all feeling angry and sad and hurt, all at the same time... My emotional sensors went haywire. And that didn't even include the fact that I, too, was feeling those very same emotions.
With that combination weighing on my heart, I cried like a little girl and forgot to be ashamed.
It did get quite cold, but I curled up in Treble's tent with six other girls and slept for a few hours that night. The wind and rain couldn't stop us from having a good time. I think my total distance for the walk was eleven miles, a sum that definitely can't compare to what some of the other kids did. If I'm sore, they must be in agony...
And yet, it was worth it. It was all worth the effort. May cancer rot in the hell in deserves.
