It should be pretty clear that I'm not a risk taker. After all, I'm an accountant - kind of the definition of lame and "safe career choice." But sometimes you have to try to defy even the laws of nature. It's why I found Nick Wallenda's walk across the Grand Canyon foolhardy, yet oddly inspiring. He's crazy, yet I admire him for taking chances. It takes bravery - you don't have guarantees of the outcome and he literally walked without a safety net. I could not do that, but I need to start letting go of fear and taking chances - otherwise I feel like my life will be wasted. Time to try defying gravity!
"Defying Gravity" from the musical Wicked
Woot! Are you going to beat Wallenda to tightroping between the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building? That'd show him! :)
