Take the Test: What's Your Word?

My Word is "Fearless"


"You see life as your one chance to experience everything, and you just go for it! You believe the biggest risk is being afraid and missing out on something amazing. Sometimes your fearlessness means you're daring. You enjoy risky activities. And sometimes your fearlessness means you're courageous. You're brave enough to do the right thing, even when it's scary".


So I thought at first it must have been the mood I was in when I took the test...

But i got to thinking, and these are the fearless things I have done:

~Got married for eternity. . .
~Gave birth seven times. . .
~Bungee jumped off a crane sitting in a sling-thingy. My brother Josh and I did this tandem. Way cool!

~I did this - down at Coeur d'Alene Lake
~Thought about doing this someday - until I had kids. . .

~Never want to do this! I love my front teeth too much!
So, take the test and comment here on what YOUR word is, and what you have done in your life that would explain it...or do your own post about it!

I took the test too and I am also fearless! :) Some of the questions I felt 2 answers to would be good but oh well.

My word is "Think"

You see life as an amazing mix of possibilities, ideas, and fascinations.
And sometimes you feel like you don't have enough time to take it all in.

You love learning. Whether you're in school or not, you're probably immersed in several subjects right now.
When you're not learning, you're busy reflecting. You think a lot about the people you know and the things you've experienced.

This is definitely true of me. I'm constantly on kicks. Right now I'm on a vocal kick and I'm reading everything I can get my hands on about how to teach singing more effectively and how to sing mor beautifully. I go on photography kicks (taught myself) quite often. And I research every little question that comes to mind. I read voraciously.

And fearless would never be my word! All of those things you listed, I would NEVER do, aside from getting married for eternity. But that was pretty scary...

My word is "fearless" also. I have also been parasailing and I thought I was so brave. I loved it! I would love to skydive or bungee jump, but I'm still a little scared. After my divorce I put fear aside and drove from Oregon to Kentucky all by myself, u-haul trailer in tow. It was such a great experience and I felt so free. I do have a fear of trying new foods, so I'll have to work on that.

I think that is the perfect word for you! Seriously, look at all of the insane things you have done. And the para gliding, or whatever it's called, over the lake... was it fun? I am too scared to try it.

Becky said...

My word was think. Which is totally appropriate because I'm a math-loving, book-devouring, love-to-learn-new-things freak. Awesome!

My word is "Hope"

You see life as an opportunity for learning, growth, and bringing out the best in others.
No matter how bad things get, you always have at least a glimmer of optimism.

You are accepting and forgiving. You encourage those who have wronged you to turn over a new leaf.
And while there is a lot of ugliness in the world, you believe that almost no one is beyond redemption.

After reading that -- it fits me to a tee... Also, I'd rather ride a bull than jump out of a perfectly good airplane!

I thought about skydiving, also before children. What I am most impressed with is that you gave birth 7 times. That alone qualifies you for "fearless." :)

Kate said...

My word is hope. This was great and very interesting.

Mrs. O said...

Wow! You really are fearless. I did it awhile back and I think it was Think. I would think about those things too much and chicken out.

Nathan said...

You're much more brave than I am, that's for sure. I like having my feet on the ground.
