Day 179 -- Centennial Celebrations

The College where I completed two degrees celebrated its centennial today. This was the culmination of a year of events. This afternoon was a ceremony for Alumni of Influence Awards -- 124 of the 4500 graduates of the programs were honoured. An amazing group of people and accomplishments in health care that add strength to the professions, College and University.

Reading through the list of recipients I marvelled at the way that all these lives passed through the same doors and classrooms, walked among the same trees and pathways. Lives that intersected and intertwined sometimes sharing the walk but often without knowing each other. All these lives will live on together in the recorded names of the award recipients. It is a somewhat mind-blowing concept.  

Thinking of this event brought to mind words from a song.  Enjoy!
