About

Aloha!
I am not new to blogging in any form but I finally decided I needed a place to call " home" that wasn't confined to a certain niche or subject. I had a LiveJournal (remember those?) before they were "cool," I have a personal blog for my family, for my senior internship in college I wrote about being an MWR Intern, and for a few years I dabbled in the MilSpouse Blogging World, but ultimately didn't continue any except for my family one.

So why Daring Dandelion?

DARING

Definition: Adventurous or audaciously bold.
While I am admittingly neither of these all the time, I strive to be daring in this crazy ever changing life of mine!

DANDELION

"If a Christian would take the form of a flower, what would it be? Some would say a rose, some might say a tulip, and yet others would say a daffodil. I on the other hand, say that a Christian is called to be a dandelion, because a dandelion has all the attributes of a Christian witness.

• A dandelion is the first sign of hope in the spring
• A dandelion is the first expression of love, for it is the first "flower" usually given to a mother by a small child.
• A dandelion makes itself known in the neighborhood quickly.
• A dandelion is not conscious of class and equally casts itself on the rich and the poor.
• A dandelion provides beauty and color where nothing else will grow.
• A dandelion can be cut, trampled, dug up, or pulled up and still bounces back with its witness as though nothing happened.
• A dandelion is a victim of slander, for some people call it a weed, but it pushes on undaunted to conquer the world.
• A dandelion is very neighborly.

Wouldn't it be great if we would all act and witness like dandelions?"
