I Do Dare

to risk it.

It takes courage to push yourself to places that you have never been before... to test your limits... to break through barriers. And the day came when the risk it took to remain tight inside the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom. ~ Anais Nin

I have to risk it. If I do not risk it, I could miss out on what might be the most wonderful thing of my life. It is not so much that I dare TO risk, but it is that I do not dare not to. There is more to loose than there is to gain by hiding my head in the sand. This happiness, these smiles, this joy is all too precious to dare let slip away. I dare to risk it. I dare to risk my heart.
