this was my daily devo for today that i thought might inspire those who might read my journal^^
Playing life's games to the fullest requires taking risks. Without risk, life has little emotion, little that can be counted as exhilarating or fulfilling. -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 feelings is to risk exposing one's true self. -To place ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk ridicule. -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. Yet the person who risks nothing, has nothing, and ultimately becomes nothing.
