Risking

Two seeds lay side by side in the fertile soil.

The first seed said, “I want to grow! I want to send my roots deep into the soil beneath me, and thrust my sprouts through the earth’s crust above me … I want to unfurl my tender buds like banners to announce the arrival of spring … I want to feel the warmth of the sun on my face and the blessing of the morning dew on my petals!”

And so she grew…

The second seed said, “I am afraid. If I send my roots into the ground below, I don’t know what I will encounter in the dark. If I push my way through the hard soil above me I may damage my delicate sprouts … what if I let my buds open and a snail tries to eat them? And if I were to open my blossoms, a small child may pull me from the ground. No, it is much better for me to wait until it is safe.”

And so she waited…

A yard hen scratching around in the early spring ground for food found the waiting seed and promptly ate it.

Moral of the story … Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life.

Risk

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 your true self.

To place your 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 in despair.

To try at all
Is to risk failure,

But risk we must,
Because the greatest hazard in life…
Is to risk
Nothing.

 

They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they simply can not learn, change, feel, grow, love, live........

Chained by their attitudes they are slaves.

 

ONLY THE PERSON RISKS IS FREE !!!

"Friends, Life is full of Risks.

Either Take Risks and achieve success or be ready for the stagnant life........ .......

Choice is Yours"
