I've been working for a few years now on being more brave. It's been varied in success. I remember when I was young, little, my unchecked courage always made me the most daring kid I knew.

I was the one picked to knock on the haunted house's front door or retrieve the fly ball from the neighbors' yard-guarding dog.

I want to be brave and strong.
