risk


The risk of love is loss, and the price of loss is grief
but the pain of grief
is only a shadow
when compared with the pain
of never risking love

 -- Hilary Stanton Zunin

    Nice.

    And so true.

    Here's another:

    “There is no intensity of love or feeling that does not involve the risk of crippling hurt. It is a duty to take this risk, to love and feel without defense or reserve.”
    ― William S. Burroughs

    Hug...

    yes, it's fucking-assed scary. It's often painful. But the joy and bliss so much outweigh the pain....that I'm willing to dive in...
