The first time I saw The Giving Keys necklaces, I immediately thought of my friend Karen.

I chose the word COURAGE.

Karen is generous, compassionate, loving, and kind. Her deep courage really stands out to me. She faces the world head on without fear. She embraces life to the fullest. Even when life is unfair, she continues on without fear. She has had to face life and death medical issues. She is under close watch by her doctor and still faces unknown territory. But again, keeps her faith and stays strong. She also shows much courage in caring for her 91 year old mother. Her courage also extends to animals as well. She is their advocate. Her specialty is cats, but she would never turn an animal away in need. Like me, she loves and appreciates nature.

Therefore, COURAGE describes my friend Karen. So glad to be her friend!
