As a young lady seventeen years old and just graduating high school, I was put to a dare by a high school teacher named Mr. Buren Sullivan. As a graduation gift Mr. Sullivan gave me a book titled, “I DARE YOU,” Authored by William H. Danforth in 1954. At the time I questioned why, later I knew because graduating high school in 1956, I was declared the top scholar of my class and was presented with the Top Scholastic Award. I disappointed Mr. Sullivan by getting married three days after graduation, I could have gone on to college but for other reasons I did not. Later on I read this little 5x7 book of one hundred nineteen pages from there I had a constant niggle in the back of my mind. As circumstances turned out a few years later that sub consciousness in my mind became a big dream that I carried through, thanks to my husband, children, a very astute gentleman teacher and the Blessing from my Heavenly Father.
