Risk

Risk


This was taken at the Port Campbell. This where we had out lunch break on the way back to Melbourne. I was taking picture of the port when i looked back and say sea gullssss surrounding my friends. One of them was eating ice cream, a few was eating french fries. Sie Vun took the risk to give a fries to the sea gulls. Being bitten by these hard beak thing won't be so fun. The sea gulls too take risk. In fact, this sea gull bite the fries and jump off to the air to seek for safety.



The Dilemma

To laugh is to risk appearing a fool.
To weep is to risk appearing sentimental.
To reach out for another is to risk involvement.
To expose feelings is to risk rejection.
To place your dreams before the crowd is to risk ridicule.
To love is to risk not being loved in return.
To go forward in the face of overwhelming odds is to risk failure.
But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
The person who risks nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing.
He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or love.
Chained by his certitudes, he is a slave.
He has forfeited his freedom.
Only a person who takes risks is free.
