Fearless.


I was contemplating out loud. 

Should i be a teacher Tivi.

Yes mum, you should. You know a lot of things.

I don't, but there's more to teaching than knowing things.

'You have to be - Fearless?'

I laugh. 

I suppose so.

What does that mean Tivi?

It means brave!

You're right, being fearless is not being scared of anything though. Being brave can mean you're scared but you do it anyway because you know it's right.

I sing her the lyrics of Taylor swifts 'Fearless.'

She raises her eyebrows.

I laugh some more.

I love the word - Fearless. I love that it's in her vocabulary. I should have given it to her as a middle name. 

As a hope.
