The Power of People

Today was a pretty cool day. Gustavo & I attended a fundraiser for Taylor Souza, our friend who is battling leukemia. The fundraiser was at a golf resort here in Phoenix-golf and dinner. Despite the temperatures being around 113, the turn out was remarkable! Gustavo and I both had dinner, he also golfed, and I helped man a contest at a hole on the course. We where out in these temps for a good 5 hours or so! But it didn't matter! Over 100 golfers where there, and dinner was packed!! There was a game on the course, a raffle, a silent auction-just amazing and everyone wanted a piece! People where so happy to give and be there-I feel like I was bathed in pure positivity all day-it was wonderful. It was very inspiring. Tom, who put the day together let me "sell" Leukemia & Lymphoma Awareness Bracelets" for my fundraising. Thanks to everyone's generous spirit I sold them all! I should have ordered more-something I learned, not to expect less of myself in this fundraising-people will give. I think I am going to order more for future donations-they are very popular! But that is just a side-note to the wonderful giving to the Souza Family today! Thanks to all!
