National Dare Day

"Truth, Dare, Double Dare, Promise or Repeat?"

Today is National Dare Day! Today gives you the perfect opportunity to break out of your comfort zone and do something different. Maybe you are a person of routine? this gives you the perfect excuse to try something new. Dare to be different!

I had a difficult time finding the origin of this day, but it might be along the lines of that childhood game Truth or Dare. Challenging another person to perform a difficult task and having the courage to perform said task. This is not a day for bullying someone into doing something, it's to have fun while doing some daring (fun, safe and legal) activities.

How to celebrate Dare Day: 

Play Truth or Dare

Do something challenging. Bungee jumping, surf boarding, kayaking.

Dare your friends to go on an adventure. A hike? Climb a mountain or sand dune? Go skiing?

Some fun dares: 

perform a rap song
write a poem or limerick
learn a new dance (or go dancing)
kiss someone
