Members shared wild and deeply personal stories in response to what crazy thing they'd done, ranging from adventurous acts like skydiving, parasailing, and white water rafting to intimate moments like public sex and spontaneous cross-country moves for love or marriage equality. Several members described life-changing decisions they made with little planning or resources, including selling everything to relocate, meeting strangers who became lifelong partners, and overcoming addiction through faith alone. A recurring theme was growth through risk-taking, with most members expressing no regrets about their bold choices even when consequences were difficult, celebrating the memories, lessons, and authentic connections that came from daring to live fully.

Moved to Massachusetts so that my husband and I could legally be married in the only state that recognized gay marriage. We lived in Florida, sold most of our possessions, packed the car and headed north without jobs/employment.
Faith guided us, the struggle, the journey strengthened our bond.

I have done many crazy things in my life. The good part of it is I am still alive too talk about it. Some of those crazy moments have given me great memories that can make me smile today.

I smoked crack and before a year was up I was down to 97lbs. After my children were taken away I asked the Lord to take the want away. Without rehab and just faith I never looked back! God is great!
