Day 692 | Perspective
This image represents a lot to me. It’s the first time that I’ve volunteered my photographic skills to an organization (The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society), for their annual “Light The Night” fundraiser and really put myself outside of my comfort zone as an image maker. It is a good reminder of the people in my life that are currently battling cancer, those that have conquered it, and those that could hang on no longer. It is also a great reminder to be grateful for the circumstances and people that we have in our lives, and even when we’re having a rough / bad / tired day, there are folks out there dealing with so much more – immeasurably more.
For those that aren’t familiar with the “Light The Night” event, it’s a fundraiser to, among other things, help folks work through the process of being diagnosed with, and treating Leukemia or Lymphoma, and as well as working to find a cure for it. In this event, folks walk with the lighted paper balloons you see above – the red ones in support of someone that has it, the yellow ones in memory of someone that did, and the white ones are for survivors.
This image will forever be my reminder to be grateful for the healthy, incredible family that I am so very fortunate to have.
