this one doesn't need a title.........

It seems to be true, what all these great people have been saying over the ages. A life without risk, is hardly a life at all. You do have the other option, of course, of squandering your life away, holed up in your tiny shelter, WAITING for life to notice you. Here’s a thought - life has forgotten about you, sitting there in your nook. Greatness does not come to those who wait. It comes, instead, to those who go after it.
A risk, by definition, is exposure to loss or destruction. So it is but natural that those who dared to venture out would suffer losses, sometimes of magnanimous proportions. Consider this, however – perhaps there is something greater waiting for you to come grab it. Perhaps the only way to be the best, is to have the courage to let go of the comfort of second best. Sometimes you need to jump, without a safety net. Security and comfort are the pleasures of those who compromise. Comfort hinders growth. As soon as a person gets comfortable, they stop striving. as soon as they stop striving, they give up their position in the race. They’re off track, and there they shall remain, as long as they’re ‘comfortable’.
The greater your risk, the greater your life will be after. And along with greatness, comes a feeling of profound peace. Not the peace that comfort deluded you with. Rather, real peace,( at the risk of getting slightly heavy here) the kind that provides you with the euphoria of finally grasping what being one with the universe implies. It is at this point, that you have everything you ever dreamed of. You are, however, also fully aware, that this is not the zenith of your evolution. Once the process has begun, it shall cease only with your last breath, perhaps not even then. It is also at this very time, that you might, perhaps, regain all that you had lost in the process. Maybe it shall be even greater now, in tune with the quality of your life.
Perhaps, the only way to achieve your dream is to let it go for a while.
If it is meant to be, nothing, not even you can prevent it.
