RISK

shutterstock_327260657As we remember the fallen on Remembrance Day, and the risks they took to give us freedom, take heed of the message below as a way to finding your own personal freedom:

To laugh is to risk appearing the fool

To weep is to risk appearing sentimental

To reach for another is to risk involvement

To expose your ideas or your dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss

To love is to risk not being loved in return

To live life to the full is to risk dying

To believe is to risk despair

To do is to risk failure, but risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing at all.

The person who risks nothing, does nothing, shares nothing, is nothing.

He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he cannot love, learn, feel, change or grow.

Chained by his certitude, he is a slave and has forfeited his freedom.

Only a person who risks in life is ever truly free.
