Have you ever had something you thought was calling your name? Have you ever had a burning desire to do something, try something, experience something? Do you have a BUCKET LIST? Do you know what it is that you truly want to do before its too late?
Have you ever watched something and thought, HUH maybe I could do that? Maybe I could be that girl that climbs that mountain, explores that cave, bikes that distance, races that race. So what is stoping you? YOU
Are you too scared, uneducated on how to reach that goal? Are you your own worst enemy? Sometime's I think I am. When I was 18 I was fearless, nothing was going to stop me I was like a hurricane. Wild, unpredictable, rough around the edges, and really had NO edit button. So what happened to her? I settled into adulthood, married, kids, job, chores, bills, responsibility... Not that I don't love it because I do. BUT sometimes I miss the old me, not the lippy, no edit button version of me because sometimes she does come out, just to get me in trouble. But the wild and crazy, go get it girl.
When I was 21 I was like this is that last GREAT birthday I am ever going to have. The next big birthdays all have 0's behind it... YIKES!!! So I vowed that I would do something wild and crazy, try something new every year after that, so when I was old I would be the girl that said "Hells Yeah I did it, and I rocked it" But as I got older the dream of being that girl kind of died and was replaced with the "whatever" girl.
So I have decided that I am reclaiming my wildness, not to be confused with recklessness. This year I am going to go on my caving adventure. I am going to go the Rats Nest Grotto, I am going to a 6 hour cave exploring tour and finish off the day with a massage (because I am old and will need it) and a large beer, because I am Canadian! Are you in?
you missy are crazy...if i have to be in...i am...but not sure....
