There is a risk,
In everything
Isn’t there?
Love,
Fear
Moving,
Letting go.
The risks I’ve taken
Were always scary.
I weighed the risks.
The possibility of loss
Versus
The possibility of gain.
Some of them
Worked out.
Some of them,
Didn’t.
At least,
Not the way I wanted.
But I know,
Beyond all
That if I didn’t take the chance,
If I didn’t allow myself to be vulnerable to loss
There was no chance to gain.
I’d rather lose 100 times
With the chance to gain once,
Than to stay stagnant,
And wondering,
What if I had taken that chance?
What if I’d asked the question
And the answer was yes?

Good write
Thanks! 😊
I took a risk once and it was a fatal mistake. I don’t take risks now….I’m too comfortable…and I intend to stay that way. LOL
I’m not. I always want to go further. That might be perceived as a flaw. I won’t risk it unless I really really want it. I’m not stupid, but just willing. 😋
Not really a flaw…just a choice. I never really have been a risk taker, actually. Don’t temp the law….don’t play the lottery (hell, I’m not going to give somebody else my dollar)….LOL
I don’t buy lottery tickets, don’t gamble at all. Would never tempt the law. But id risk love, again and again, on the Vance the answer might be yes. 😊
