Nothing


To laugh is to risk appearing the fool,
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental,
To reach out for another is to risk involvement,
To expose our feelings is to risk exposing our true self,
To place you ideas and dreams before the crowd is to risk loss, ...
To love is to risk not being loved in return,
To live is to risk dying,
To hope is to risk despair,

But we must, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
The man,
        the woman
            who risks nothing,
                                does nothing,
                                    has nothing,

          is nothing.

Let's together take that risk, be open to new thoughts, ways of acting that help each other and OURSELVES. 

I'll love YOU for that (you too!!)
