Only a person who Risks is Free!

To Laugh:   Is to risk appearing the fool!

To Weep:  Is to risk appearing sentimental!

To Reach our for another is to risk involvement!

To Expose Feelings:  is to risk exposing your 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 returned

To Live is to Risk Dying!

To Hope is to Risk Despair!

To Try is to Risk failure!

Only a person who risks is free!

The greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
But, risks must be taken,

Because the person  who risks nothing
does nothing and is nothing

He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply
cannot learn feel, change, grow love and live.  
Changed by his certitudes he is a slave, he has forfeited freedom.

 Only a person who risks is free!
