But here I am
On my way in the sky to the top of a mountain in Utah.
On my way up so I can come down hanging by a wire!
Petrified but determined
Look at me
I may have fear
But I am courage
Somedays it feel that what stops me, is my own fear
And as I zip down on this rope over a valley -so breathtakingly beautiful that you say a silent prayer to God's art.
As I zip down the rope at 45 miles an hour, so full of exhilaration, really it feels like I am flying
I start to wonder about all the other things, feelings and experiences that I could have if I let go of fear...
What would you do if you were mastered fear?
Courage is doing what you're afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you're scared.”

sounds like fun,and Utah is very beautiful...
isn't if crazy how we all fear different things, but the base line for overcoming it is pretty much the same for all things...
So glad you are having a great time.
Look at you! You don't look scared at all! Sounds like so much fun (although I am afraid of heights.) I absolutely love that quote about courage!
Round 2, yeah I didn't proof read and I dislike spelling errors.

I can see your fist pump in the air and your scream of WOOT!! WOOT!! from here. See you are a rockstar!!
That truly is a Beautiful quote, me likey.

Look at that photo! You don't look scared!
You know-I always read but don't always comment-there are just so many ways to say you write beautifully. :)
You are a brave woman-I have this fear that if I actually attempted a zip line..my kids at the last minute would jump on..and we would become this massive force of nature zipping down the mountain...which I guess we already are..:)I just prefer the analogy to the reality-I have a terribly desperate fear of heights..;0
Wow, I would have been terrified! You are brave :).
I love this line:
"I may have fear. But I am courage."
This is the pep talk I give myself when I realize I am shutting out too many things and resisting change. Brava!
You look very confident in this picture. I always enjoy reading your posts and seeing what is new.
Looks like you had fun!
Sounds exciting and terrifying! You are courageous!
it sounds invigorating!
Liberating, i bet. Great shot! Hope you have a great holiday weekend!
I bet the view was incredible. Good for you facing your fears!
You look radiant! What an adrenaline rush, too. Yikes. Kudos to you, my friend.
Woo Hoo!! Scared and courageous going hand in hand, in color! Good going!
Look at you, facing fears!
A few years ago, my husband and I were on a ferris wheel and we were at the top. He asked me, "are you scared?" Without missing a beat, I said, "this stuff doesn't scare me anymore. Spending the rest of my life with Autism scares me."
I get it.
