A sign?

I had been thinking about doing the 3-Day Walk again since we crossed the finish line back in 2008. I had decided to take one year off from it to rest and since the economy was bad I figured maybe raising $2,300.00 might be a little hard. Then 2009 and 2010 came and gone.
This morning I was driving to work and I changed the radio station channel and a commercial came on with the familiar phrase, "Everyone deserves a lifetime" and by the end I had tears in my eyes.

I went on Facebook after I had gotten to work (Yes, I know productive of me) and one of the most recent posts was one from Susan G Komen. It had nothing to do with the 3-Day walk, but I clicked the link. Which lead me to click on another link. Which lead to me going to the 3-Day site where I was just going to poke around. I toggled back over to my Gmail while the site loaded and I had one new message in my inbox. It was from the 3-Day walk inviting me to come back and walk again. I sat there for a moment and thought about it and without hesitation I signed up for the 2011 Chicago 3-Day.
