DARE



Cleaning out some posts in draft that I never got to, and came across this 1:29 short video. I tagged it, "must see."

How could I have ever forgotten about this.

I always get chills at :54; and even with the cheesy brass at 1:08, I'm crying at 1:13, and my eyes are filled with tears by the fast and furious finale at 1:19.

"DARE;" what I know about it is that it was filmed in Peru for a clothing line called SAGA.

What else do I know about it? It tells me to never let FEAR win.

    I love this. I do not want to let fear win. I will face my fear on a daily basis and stare it down because I am so much stronger than I realize.

    Okay, no tears, but giant, shivery goosebumps. (And a big, goofy grin when she kisses her man!)

    I LOVE this!! It needs to be my life video, the video equivalent of the little stickie that I have over my bed or desk before I go to bed or start each work day. Love it, thank you for sharing this, Alexandra.

      I KNOW.

      My exact words, WTH? THIS? And I never put it up?

      Dang life and how busy it makes us. Not enough time to do everything we want to do, share everything we want to share.

    I LOVED that! I am now inspired, and I will maybe even get some writing done today. But that was completely awesome.

    That was awesome! I felt it!
    I need to clean out my drafts also. I just now looked (between these two sentences) and I have 178 drafts! Somehow my blog has morphed into something that is almost totally about photographs and our road trips. I've gained a lot of new followers based on the photos and now I wonder how many of them will hang around if I start posting poems and stories again...

    I had to wait2days to be able to view this on a computer that wouldn't block the video player, and I'm so glad I did. Worth. It.

    Beautiful share, thx :)
