Stacy Case had been with the Columbia
Police Department a little over four years, but had a previous 15-year career
in the U.S. Army as a military police officer, where she was a veteran of the
Iraq War. She received several awards
while serving her country, including the Iraq Campaign Medal with two campaign
stars, the National Defense Service Medal, the Global War on Terrorism
Expeditionary Award, the Army Commendation Medal, the Army Achievement Medal,
Meritorious Unit Commendation, and a Good Conduct Award. She died in a car collision answering the call
of duty.
Sometimes, we tend to find excuses for the things that don't work out for us. We tend to blame others instead of taking responsibility for our actions, which only elevates the excuses. This behavior also applies to standing up for what is right. We often remain silent and wait for someone else to take the initiative instead of holding ourselves accountable. "What's your excuse, now?" is about empowering ourselves to make choices that will help us feel comfortable and confident in our skin.
