Looking back over the past 18 days, it seems as though this time has flown by.  There have been two dares that were hard for me.  The first dare was hard because it was just that, the first one.  It takes a lot to actually start something and getting through that first day was difficult.  It taught me though to ask God everyday to guard my mouth, heart, and thoughts. Day #12 was also difficult for me.  I was a single parent for so long and in my previous marriage never had a voice.  So I got use to things being my way that when I met my husband it was difficult to let go of that way of life.  I see now that it doesn't always have to be my way even if I disagree with him.
