Risk. A small word, but one hamstrung with the weight of decision: whether you make the right decision and succeed, or make the wrong decision and face abject failure. It’s not about courage – not walking with lions, jousting with demons or walking an imaginary tightrope – but being prepared to face up to something that is a curved ball which appears in ones comfort zone.
ReplyDeleteRisk. It’s not a small word at all: it’s a big word. Sometimes it’s not a good word. We have to find the point where seizing the moment does not become reckless.
It’s all about balance.
Beautifully put! I like how you threaded through the childhood imagination while counterbalancing it with the overall impact of what such a word means. It is all about balance!
