As I grow older (a big 34) I find myself looking back. Not to regret but to learn and hopefully to teach. The Dare is to dare the reader to love thy neighbor as thy self. To stop looking at the world selfishly but how you can contribute unselfishly. Most of all I have been considering how I can affect family and friends to dare to live outside of this selfish fantasy world that Hollywood has created for us.
I am not a writer or philosopher. I'm just daring my readers to be different. Hold back a rude comment, treat your wife with love and respect, and be a good neighbor.... I DARE YOU.
