I knew they did luminaries but thought they just set them out an lit them for us to walk around.
Turns out it soo much more special than that.
Everyone gets a candle to hold and we gather to listen to stories of survival and stories of the fighters who did not make it.
It reaches down and touches your heart.
Everyone comes together and they, even complete strangers, share a moment together.
Then they all took a lap around in memory of those that have passed.
And as they went around a second time they thought of all those survivors still with us.
And that turned into a celebration of life and that meant just so much to me.
Please remember to always celebrate your life, no matter what trial you are currently going through. It is a gift.
