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 our true self.
To place~ your ideas, your 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.
To try~ at all is to risk failure.
But to risk~ we must,
because the greatest hazard in life
is to risk nothing.
