Brave

   

So...I haven't been on here for a few months, I thought it was time to let everyone know I'm still alive! And before you continue to read this you should watch the trailer above. Unless you've already seen it before. Mostly I just wanted to steal the last line from it. "If you could change your fate, would ya?" I've seen the trailer quite a few time because...well it looks like it's going to be a great movie. Anyways, I digress...I've been doing some thinking the last little bit and thought maybe I should share my opinions and get some feedback.

This thinking started before I saw this trailer and heard the last line but every time I hear "If you could change your fate, would ya?", I keep going back to those thoughts. This already is getting kind of confusing...Lately, I have been feeling as if life is just happening around me and I'm not really a part of it. Like, I'm not really being proactive in what is going on around me or to me. I feel like I stay where I'm safe and comfortable rather than making changes that may be necessary. Also, I've been feeling very UNbrave! For those of you who knew me in my childhood, I've been told I was kind of fearless. I did crazy things like cartwheel on a cliff and balance on a broken office chair...that's mom's favorite story to share! Somewhere along the way, I lost that daring attitude to try and I've been missing it lately.

So, now my goal is to analyze. Look at my life and figure out what I'm missing, what changes I can make to "change my fate". I already know some things that I definitely want to change and have been working on those areas but I could always increase what I'm doing and put in more of an effort to really get things changed. There are other areas I want to focus on and make some changes as well. I know that change is not always easy and definitely not fun, but I've decided I can't just be a spectator anymore. I want to do something, I want to be brave again and somewhat fearless....fearless meaning, willing to try new things and not just doing dumb things! This post sounds like a lot to undertake but I just can't wait for things to happen, I want to make them happen...or at least help them happen!

As always, I hope this makes sense to anyone reading it. I'm always worried that things only make sense to me! I could write more on this subject but right now, I've got to get ready for work so....If anyone is feeling UNbrave like me, I hope you find some courage to be a little more fearless! Also, I welcome any and all suggestions that you may have!
