 | 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 your feelings is to risk rejection
To place your dreams before the crowd is to risk ridicule
To love is to risk not being loved in return
To go forward in the face of overwhelming odds
is to risk failure
But risk's must be taken,
Because the greatest risk of all is to risk nothing
The person who risk's noghing, does nothing
has nothing... is nothing
He may avoid suffering and sorrow,
But he cannot learn, he cannot feel,
He cannot change, he cannot grow
And he cannot love.
Chained by his certitudes, he is a slave
Only the person who risk's is truely free.
