In everything you do, there's a risk involved. Every time you smile and share it with the world, every time you cry you are opening yourself to hurt. Some people walk slowly through life, avoiding the risk of it. Sidestepping the things they cannot understand.
Turning away from those who care too much, those who care to stay too long, those who hold too tightly. There is never an easy way to Love, you cannot approach it cautiously. It will not wait for you to arm yourself. It does not care if you turn away, it is everywhere, and it is everything.
Love is the greatest of all risks. It is not that dependable, it is not prudent, it is not orderly, it doesn't prejudice and unmerciful. It strikes the strongest of mind and brings them to their knees in one blow.
Love is SURRENDER without a loss. It is a gift without a cost. It consumes your every thought and wishes, every breath you take; it is a fire that fuels you. To do more than pass through life, urges you instead, to live.
The risk of love never depletes, it grows stronger and more dangerous with time. But, it is in the total surrender of all defenses, that we no matter weak or strong, no matter willing or captive, no matter what we truly experience LOVE. No matter the outcome having felt love, you will never be the same. It may scar your heart and soul and leave you only memories of forever, or it may cause every day of your life, to feel like there is no need for tomorrow...
But Love is worth it, it is worth the risks...for in all of Life, LOVE is truly the only risk worth taking for...
