"Sometimes all you need is twenty seconds. Twenty seconds of courage. Twenty seconds of embarrassing bravery, and I promise something amazing will come of it. "
-Benjamin Mee, We Bought A Zoo
I realized that after everything..and it was a lot..2012 will be the first entire year that I will not have to stress, and be anxious, over wondering what the heck is wrong with me. This will be the first entire year of knowing that I have Endometriosis, and that is why I have felt so utterly crappy. And what better way to celebrate this first entire year, then with a rather decent resolution: Be Fearless.
Knowing, makes the world less scary. I now know the answer to the one question that instilled such fear in my life, so now I have no excuse to be anything but fearless. I am finally equipped with the mental, and medical weapons that I need to deal with what I've been dealing with, so why not move onto kicking the rest of the world's ass.
One step at a time, of course! I haven't made plans to jump out of a plane, or eat scorpions, or backpack Europe on my own. I'm not a crazy person! I did eat a McChicken meal though. Lol. You may or may not know how terrifying that was for me. But I did it! And! I did t die, or even throw up when I was done! Little triumphs inspire bravery. I also happily accepted another shift at work, another 7 hours away from the safety of my own home, and another 7 hours closer to working full-time like every other 'normal' adult! And up next...me and my fearlessness are taking on Vegas!
Booya.
2012 is my year. Princesses make for excellent share'ers, though.
