There are not a lot of people so willing to get out there, to stand up in front of a crowd despite the fear and feelings of intimidation. That's courageous, and you are right - it makes life interesting. Because those risks are going to bring rewards - touching people's lives, your own personal growth, perhaps another speaking engagement... And I bet next time will be easier.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444751395260978471.post-13383438626544614502010-11-07T20:33:18.802-05:002010-11-07T20:33:18.802-05:00This very brave thing you did has brought rewards,...This very brave thing you did has brought rewards, so congrats! I know what you mean. Until a woman has worked in an environment like law, science, or a secular university, it might be hard to understand why getting up in public as a person of faith can be a challenge. But knowing what a risk that would be, I am very happy you stepped up!Rosslyn Elliotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11304732306399786236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8444751395260978471.post-90902489539824582752010-11-07T01:18:47.051-04:002010-11-07T01:18:47.051-04:00Oh I saw your tweet and I prayed for you!

I think they all thought I was a little nutty.

Sometimes when I am faced with things outside of my comfort zone, I back up and decide at the last minute not to stretch myself.<br /><br />So proud of you, and it is good for me to remember all the good that does come when we take risks...new friend?

You weren't doing anything but being real--honest! <br /><br />I take risks all the time. Part of my wiring. It's crazy. I think half of it is God nudging me and half the time I think I'm a loon. ;)<br /><br />Happy weekend!<br />~ WendyWendy Paine Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136235074351188350noreply@blogger.com
