Have you ever been asked to do something out of your comfort zone? Ever felt like you were unqualified, not talented enough, or simply not good enough?
Yeah, that happened to me. Only this time I didn’t have to stand alone.
My girlfriends, Mary, Deborah, and I accepted the challenge to participate in our annual church’s Sweetheart Banquet. Ah, the joys of friendship! We went all out in finding matching outfits and practiced for weeks. Our bonding during rehearsal, accompanied a good deal of missteps and loads of laughter while lip-synching to “Near You”.
On the night of the event, when our turn came up, my motto was to zero in on my husband in the audience, sing to him, keep balanced wearing heels, and just have fun! We pulled it off and had a blast performing our skit. We received loads of compliments.
So when you think you can’t – you just might after all. Then again, you’ll never know if you never try.
Aren’t we purty?
Reflections From the Heart 
This was so sweet! I enjoyed this immensely. It looks to me like y’all had a wonderful time.
And I absolutely loved the sentiment behind your post. God bless you, sis. You are a blessing!
Thank you Holly! And a wonderful time indeed!
It was a blast! I loved being with my girlfriends, learning, laughing and making memories!
It was out of my comfort zone as well… but just like our ziplining challenge…we got by with a little help from our friends!
So glad you both were ‘near’ ME!
So true, Deborah. Here’s to many more adventures! 🙂
