" 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 feeling is to risk Involvement.
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 overwelming odds
is to risk failure.
But risk must be taken,
Because the greatest risk of all is to risk nothing.
The person who risks Our nothing, does nothing,
has nothing and is nothing.
He may avoid Suffering and Sorrow,
but he can not learn, he can not feel,
he can not change, he can not Grow
and he can not love.
Chained by his certitudes, he it is a slave.
Only the person who is truly risk free. "
