This Saturday, a few of us from the Bay Area drove down to Long Beach for the annual Walk For Hope, put on by CharityFocus's sister organization BeTheCause.
It was a really inspiring event, and I was amazed at how well organized it was. There must've been a few hundred walkers, and we had everything from water and food, to the Laker Girls walking us through the warm-up.
Along the 5k walk there were inspiring quotes posted, and various thought provoking activities. My favorite activity was the first one where they had two lines drawn in the grass. Everyone stood on one side, and they would ask people to cross to the other line if you had experienced various feelings of judgement in your life. It really made you think about how you treat others, and how much we all have in common. You can take a look at the pictures here.
