To laugh is to risk appearing the fool To weep is to risk appearing sentimental To reach out for one another is to risk involvement To expose feelings is to risk exposing true self To place your ideas,your dreams before the crowd is to risk their loss To love is to risk not being loved in return To live is to risk dying To hope is to risk despair To try is to risk failure BUT risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering sorrow. But he simply cannot learn,feel,change,grow,love,live. Chained by certitudes he is a slave, he has forfeited freedom. Only a person who risks is truly free!! ~unknown author #mondaymotivation #risk #becomingabetterme #igfit #fitspo #godstrong #youbeforeme #sunset #goldenhour #phil413 #oc #blessed #potd #youvsyou #dreamstoreality #cantstopwontstop #newthingscoming #keepmovingforward (at Harvest Orange County)
