be-musings

On a much earlier blog I talked about facing fears, and said "maybe I'll go sky diving". My mom beat me to it. Today, she accomplished something she desired to do since she was a teen. She jumped from a plane at 10,000 feet, hurtled toward the earth, and landed gently under a parachute. I, on the other hand, laid on a picnic bench looking up at the dot in the sky, complaining I was getting vertigo because I couldn't see the ground while looking up.
Many of us wouldn't have been as gutsy (or insane) as mom. That's what makes her vibrant.
Thanks mom for sharing your youthfulness with us.
