Just a different view of the tree in bloom.
The Salt Lake Marathon (half for me) is only days away. That has me thinking about why I run and why I am working on this project. I have to make a confession — I hate running. But I like the people that I run with, and I feel like I need to support them the same way they supported me when I needed it. And I do it to support cancer research, because who knows, maybe the next study will cure kidney cancer and I won’t lose any more friends or family members to it. Or maybe it will find a cure or treatment for one of those other cancers that are just a death sentence with chemo along the way.
So the blossoms on the tree are just that new chance for a new year that some of us have, and a reminder of those things we were going to do but didn’t have the chance because, well, cancer robbed us of the chance.
