Bow before royalty.

would you like a quiet life of safety or a life of great adventure and uncerntainty

Uncertainty is defined as doubt, hesitance or lack of assurance. How terrifying a thought to doubt or be unsure. However, the times in my life that I have felt proud of my accomplishments, it occurs to me that I forged into the unknown.

When I was in high school, I braved rejection and told a very cute, intellectual sort that I liked him. He didn't return my feelings. But I remember planning my outfit, preparing for the route I would take to run into to him, my sweaty palms... And learning that rejection didn't make the world end.

I chose a university many hours from my parents and course of study reserved for men. I didn't have funding for such a choice, but I worked hard. The local drug store, campus safety, and residence life all helped me pay my way through school.

I do enjoy playing things safe when it comes to jumping out of airplanes or climbing mountains. I do not think life is something to play safe. We have only one life, and God has made a beautiful earth full of beautiful people to see.

Uncertainty also means unpredictability. What fun I shall have!
