Hello Web World!
So, why Live Braverly? Braverly is a character in a children's book/play I wrote a few years ago. What I put into this fictional character was how fearless I would have been, if I only knew the life lessons that I know now. How fearless, we would all be if we had the wisdom of yesteryear. I know that God never gives us more than we can endure; but since I was five, I've been asking him WHY? Specifically,WHY ME? There are so many challenges that are the sum of my being, while cancer is a part, it is not what defines my soul, my spirit. I spent most of my childhood scared, I spent my college years being stupid, my thirty's still afraid and making well intentioned mistakes and now in this semester of life I vow to live it BRAVERLY - to fearlessly make right or wrong decisions with love & wisdom. Not too long ago I wished, I could "live like I were dying" the reality being, everything is always one second closer to dying. When I hear this expression in a song or played out in a movie like the "Bucket List"; life becomes a race against time; to make up for what I have not done, the places I never saw, the adrenaline rush I missed. I don't regret my life, I wish I had done it better and braverly savored every small moment.
