RISK
To laugh is to risk appearing the fool.
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out to others is to risk involvement.
To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self.
To place your ideas, your 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 do nothing.
The person who risks nothing,
does nothing, has nothing, and is nothing.
They may avoid suffering and sorrow,
but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, live.
Chained by their attitudes, they are a slave,
they forfeited their freedom.
Only the person who risks can be free.

Thanks for the post. Looks like I am always taking risks.
I've been exposing myself to a lot of risk lately, and I'm liking the rewards for having done so....

Thanks Richard...a great way to start the week. I think our goal should be to embrace the risk and to do our best to manage them in a responsible manner.
Hi Rich:
WOW...this is an amazing quote!
Really hits hard that we need to take risks!!!
Love it, Richard. I thought I took risks regularly, but I realize I only do it in certain aspects of my life. You've given me food for thought - thanks. -- Tanya in Montreal

That is a great post. Amazing only four letters but a lot of meaning behind it.
The person who risks nothing,
does nothing, has nothing, and is nothing.
I really like this - Thanks for the opportunity to give this some thought, Rich.
