I’m bold!
The boldest move I ever made was walking away from an opportunity from going to dental hygiene school and moving to another town (2 hours away) to be with my then Fiance. Best/boldest move I ever made.
Kate says
WE’RE BOLD.
My now husband and I met and fell into a passionate but ill-timed love just two weeks before I was to move 900 miles away for a job that I had already accepted. After a whole year apart and only a few flights see each other he quit his job, left his friends and family and moved to NH to be with me. To the shock and in some cases disapproval of our families we got engaged after only 6 months. We quit our jobs again and moved home to Ohio were we were jobless and broke for months. Despite the adversity we knew what we wanted and made it happen. His love completely changed my life in such a short time. He makes me bold. We couldn’t be happier.
(oh, and now my family LOVES him)
