By Rachel Marie Martin
I think someone ( aka God) is trying to tell me something. I am a person who has tons of ideas, dreams, and goals but alas life gets in the way ( or so that is my excuse) and some of those ideas, dreams, goals don’t happen.
This book basically says no excuses. You can make it happen. If not now when? Rachel has done a truly honest job of writing an authentic book about being “brave”. She shares the ugly and hard examples of her own life’s mishaps while showing how she metamorphosed to becoming “brave”.
There were so many great quotes that spoke to me in the reading of this book. Here are just a few..,
pg 202
“Today is your day.
Remember you. Celebrate your story. Show up and try.
Live a life without excuses. Live with hope. Live with determination.
Live with joy. Live your kids. Be a friend. Find joy. Be brave. Breathe.
And start.
That’s the brave art of motherhood. “
Pg178” The motto of friendship needs to be this: we don’t just stay there in the stuck with one another; we keep moving forward, believing in one another.
Pg 58 “ Belief is rooted in what we know; it is s law in life. Faith is different. Faith is having hope in a future that does not yet exist. “
