To reach out to others is to risk getting involved. To show your feelings is to risk exposing your humanity. To love is to risk not being loved in return, and that if alright, you love to love, not to get something back or it is not love.
To hope is to risk pain, and to try is to risk failure, but, risk must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The peerson who risk nothing, has nothing and is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simple cannot learn, feel, change, grow, live, or love. Chained by his certitudes or his addictions, he's a slave. He has forfeited his greatest trait and that is his individual freedom. Only the person who risks is free.
To keep you hidden, to lose you because of self-defeating ideas is to die.
I want you to know how important you are to me, how you can be the creator of the person that is in me if you choose to. You alone can break down the wall behind which I tremble. You alone can release me from my shadow world of panic,uncertainty and loneliness.
So please don't pass me by. I know it will not be easy for you, A conviction of worthlessness builds strong walls. And the nearer you approach me the blinder I may strike back. You see, I am to be fighting agaisnt the very thing I need the most!
Everyone is so incredibly Unique. Everyone is different. Everyone has something to give that nobody else in the world has.
There are no two people that hug the same. The only reason in the world for having something inside is to share it.
Speaking of Intimacy, not the quantity of a relationship, but the quality of the relationship. To strive for intimacy is a risk and may bring pain. But, the only way you are ever going to see yourself, and, to grow is in a intimate relationship. If I want to find out about me I will not find it by living alone. I'am going to find it by your responses to me.
