...because even if the risk doesn't pay off, you can give yourself credit for having the courage to take it.
Lately, I have been taking emotional risks, standing before a cliff with wings I haven't learned how to use and hoping that I'll learn on the way down.
A sapling needs to struggle to life without shelter from the elements, because the constant battering of wind and rain build it's resistance to the same.
In the end, there stands a mighty tree, capable of withstanding the harshest of conditions with minor wounds, if any at all.
If we shelter our heart from pain and never learn to use it, the opportunities we might have had to feel our way through important lessons may fall victim to oversight.
Spread those wings!
