Fearless

July 18, 2010

Glad you all enjoyed that last post! Whether you’re Team Nugget or not, it was a wakeup call for a lot of us.

I won’t lie the video that Nicole sent of Jamie Oliver cooking chicken nuggets and Scott‘s vid of McDonald’s 4 Year Old Hamburger only added to the freak out. Watch them if you haven’t already.  Thank you two for sending them in. :)

Anyway, enough nugget talk. A few weeks ago my camera broke #fail, so until then, my posts are going to be a lot more magazine-y. I kind of like the change in content though.. change is good. At least for a little bit anyway.

Sooo every few weeks I fall in love with a new random word.. a little while ago it was Goober thanks to this song:

I <3 Patrick.

And of course there’s always the word Epic.

But right now it’s fearless.

Pretty interesting question right?

I know the cliche thing to say would be, go skydiving or pull an Eat Pray Love to travel the world –which don’t get me wrong are all fine and dandy, but other than those, what is one little thing you can do to be fearless?

Here is where you may think I’m crazy. This is probably super nerdy.. but when I think fearless, I think of Simba. Yes, Lion King Simba.

In the beginning he was this cute little lion cub and out of noooowhere he grew up to be the most fearless leader that everyone in Pride Rock looked up too.

That is some kinda transformation, right?!

If we were all a little more fearless, we could accomplish a heck of a lot more in our lives… just like cute little Simba.

(don’t judge.. you know you love that movie)

I don’t wanna spill the beans right now on my fearless plans.. but lets just say in August I’m flying up to New York City. Dun dun dunnn. :)

You’re just gonna have to wait and find out.

Hugs!

      Sorry I missed this comment for some reason! I’ll be up in NYC this Thursday – next Tuesday. Marina from A Veggie Girl and her Cat blog and I are going to try to meet up too! I’ll be on Twitter so we can hopefully figure out all of the deets. It’s going to be the most spontaneous week ever! :)

    Jealous you’re going to NYC…by far, one of my favorite places!!

    NY is great, I can’t wait to see what you have planned. I did a fearless thing recently. When I was in Marrakech at Djeema El-Fna, I sat with a snake charmer despite my huge fear of snakes. I was there and I was not going to miss out on not getting a picture with a real life snake charmer. I was so scared that I did not notice the cobra in front of me on the ground, thankfully!
