Outside The Box . . .

Step outside the box: Take your diabetes thoughts and instead of blogging about them as usual, push yourself to express them in a different way today. Make a vlog. Create a piece of D-Art. Write a poem. Draw a cartoon. Post a collage. Anything goes - as long as it is outside of your usual bloggy comfort zone!

Yesterday I said I wouldn't sing.  I’m not brave like Reyna, who rocked out.  When Meri showed she’s just as brave and sang a lovely ballad for us, I did wonder if I should be more brave - but quickly decided NO!!  But then, last night, I saw Kathy’s post.  Kathy (or Minnesota Nice)  has long been a hero of mine.  When I watched her video, I cried.  I was impress by her courage, I was touched and I was inspired.  She stepped WAY outside of her comfort zone - not just by getting in front of the camera, but also by talking about diabetes and sharing.  And I thought “Look how freaking brave my friend is.  If she can do this, can’t I put myself out there and sing?”.

So this video is for all of you.  But first and foremost, it’s for my wonderful friend and fellow knitter, Minnesota Nice.  I love you, Kathy!!
