In the midst of the lively crowd of bystanders at the 2013 Boston Marathon stood Rebekah Gregory with her 5-year-old son, Noah.

"It was unbelievable! The contagious atmosphere, just the excitement in the air with everyone running," described Gregory.

The silver egg represents the life that Rebekah invisioned.  The mishapen, irregular, but beautiful egg that she holds in her arm represents the new life that she has created.  The arm esposes a wire underframe that represents where she felt the blast.  The gold scattered on bits of the eggs, represents the good that has come since the tragic bombing.  The flowers represent growth and rebirth.  Rebekah's eyes are closed because this story is of her inward journey of choosing to be strong, vulnerable, honest and beautiful.
