This past Sunday, on May 16th 2010, I walked in NYC's AIDS Walk in Central Park. This was my third consecutive walk, in which I participated with Nite Star. I think its great, as a Theatre Company to walk to together in this event. The work that we do is so rewarding. It feels so good to participate in an event, like AIDS Walk, where we can feel something bigger than ourselves. Everyone there for the same reason, the same cause, the same frustration. Frustration, because after so many years, there is no cure for HIV/AIDS. For the past three years, I have walked for those I have lost in my family, and those that are still infected today.
This year I decided to bring my dog, Emjae, to walk. She was so excited to be among so many new people. I also put her in an official Nite Star T-shirt. She was our honorary mascot for the day. It was awesome. I'm glad that I was able to share this event with her, as I consider her to be a very important part of the family.
In our gear, here are some pics of us during the walk.
