“There are no guarantees. From the viewpoint of fear, none are strong enough. From the viewpoint of love, none are necessary.”
-Emmanuel
So often in life we want a guarantee. We want something new, but we are fearful. We long to know that our energy will not be wasted. We want to try a new career or implement a new idea, but we need reassurance to warrant the risk. We seek some reassurance it is easy to withdraw and not take a chance. It goes on to say we must learn to dance with life, even without a guarantee. We have to reach past out fears and embrace risk to discover the path to fulfillment. For the greatest things in life aren’t backed by guarantee, but by risk and courage. Really? What do we have to lose? Nothing.
I am behind on my “my life in three hundred and sixty-five days project” BUT! I have a real treat coming up! Or I’m pretty excited about it anyway.
