I remember what it was like attending my first Out Of The Darkness walk for American Foundation For Suicide Prevention(AFSP) in Salt Lake City, Utah. 

I wasn't sure what to expect? 

Being super nervous and anxious for what it was going to be like attending an event like this as I was walking on behalf of my sister and honoring her memory. 

Little did I know that it would become something I looked forward to doing each year that I was able to attend since my first time going. 

You see, I was able to look out at the sea of beautiful people as they were walking for their loved one. 

Each had a unique story.

One of heartbreak and sorrow. 

But there was LOVE too...

Reminders of hope every brave step you took as you walked for your loved one and their life. 

I hope you never miss the opportunity to attend a walk in your own backyard among your community. 

You will always remember this incredible experience when you are able to attend.  

Remember, YOU ARE LOVED!
