A Walk for Life
My life is in turmoil right now. There is much chaos surrounding me, and sometimes, I feel like screaming at the world "GO AWAY" and running into my hidey-hole. But today, today was different. Today I did something worthwhile. Today, I saved babies.
Today I walked in my second annual March of Dimes walk. This charity raises money for research of the causes and possible preventions of premature birth. Knowing some very special people that have been touched by this issue, and also having the miracle of a healthy, happy baby have made me realize just how important this charity is. And guess what? I raised $544 dollars! Can you believe that? My original goal was $1,000, but some unfortunate events kept me from achieving this. However, it was pointed out to me that over the past two years, I HAVE raised over $1,000. And that makes me feel great.
So, though my life is nowhere near perfect, and I feel unsure about myself and my future, I did something positive today. And I'm deciding to focus on that.
