To risk, to find love.
Do you believe you are a risk taker?
Below is a beautiful poem I read again this week. I keep a copy of it and look at it often. It always reminds me listen to myself. To connect with the part of me that is trying very hard to get out, but fear of embarrassment, failure or rejection is holding back. To listen to my inner voice that is telling me to be, or do something more.
All of us have a part that is begging to get out. We have a message to share, a unique skill or talent that isn’t being shared with the world. They are not being expressed because we have chosen a less risky pursuit and so they are lying dormant.
Letting this part of you shine through will guide you towards good risk.

"To Risk"
by William Arthur Ward
To laugh is to risk appearing a fool,
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out to another is to risk involvement,
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self.
To place your ideas and dreams before a 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 and sorrow,
But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live.
Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom.
Only a person who risks is free.
The pessimist complains about the wind;
The optimist expects it to change;
And the realist adjusts the sails.
