Risk

السلام عليكم

بِسْــــمِ ﷲِالرَّحْمَنِ الرَّحِيم

In this very world,

A risk must be taken

For who and what we want to become

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,

Tp places ideas and dreams before a crowd is to rosk their loss,

To love is to risk not being loved in return,

To hope is to risk despair,

To try is to risk failure.

But risk must be taken because the greatest loss in life is to risk nothing.

A person who risk nothing, who does nothing, has nothing...is nothing.

I may avoid suffering and sorrow,

But I cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live

Chained up by this sevitude, I am a slave who has forfeited all freedom

Only by taking risks can be a person be free.

The pessimist complains about the wind,

The optimist expects it to change

But the realist adjust the sails.
