I so admire your physical courage and stamina. And yet, I feel no inclination what-so-ever to emulate you. Isn't it wonderful that there are so Many right answers?<br />roxiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14916948065233137971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726925334003624379.post-85265699503845590002014-04-03T08:48:07.110-07:002014-04-03T08:48:07.110-07:00Second try - jumped off line when I thought I had ...Second try - jumped off line when I thought I had this posted - <br /><br />I so admire you for pushing beyond the edge of your comfort zone. I push myself all the time outside of my comfort zone, in many ways, but you won't find me hanging off the side of rocks or dropping off into canyons - that doesn't even register beyond my comfort zone. I love reading how you push through it on your blog - such an inspiration.Cindie https://www.blogger.com/profile/00417973211775970549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726925334003624379.post-71811744838044077122014-04-03T07:06:44.719-07:002014-04-03T07:06:44.719-07:00Yes, challenges work wonders on our spirits.....th...Yes, challenges work wonders on our spirits.....thank you for saying it so well in this post!

I used to hike all over the edges of the Grand Canyon or just into the mountians of Colorado for photos and fun, but after breaking an ankle falling 6" I have become more careful. I still like a good challenge though.thewovenspokehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18059932184915230837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726925334003624379.post-22925991795158571342014-04-02T12:27:14.788-07:002014-04-02T12:27:14.788-07:00What a wonderful post.

I am loving being at home after years of teaching - late hours and then home to grade papers. But, I am branching out. This week I am volunteering at Craftcation in exchange for attending classes for free. I was a bit intimidated yesterday when I arrived because I was the only volunteer and the girls were all around my daughter's age. I had a ball learning how to make huge tissue paper flowers to use for the decorations. Who knows what I will do today when I get there.Art and Sandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09070124859845536964noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726925334003624379.post-64122903011559950112014-04-02T10:47:55.279-07:002014-04-02T10:47:55.279-07:00Such an interesting question.

A doctor once told me that some people just jump right in but I'm the person who has to feel the water first, maybe put a toe in, and then every so slowly move in--if I do at all. For me, it truly depends on what it is about. I was afraid to return to school as an adult, all the young kids and being too dumb, but I did and I loved it. Things like swimming, I will never do. I've accepted who I am with regard to my fears and feel no need to push pass certain ones. Perhaps I miss out on a lot, but I'm alright with that.Rubye Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02511953177053448513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8726925334003624379.post-88876529626823718162014-04-02T10:14:06.639-07:002014-04-02T10:14:06.639-07:00'Couldn't agree more!
